Welcome, my lords. Thee, Lateranus, first
Let me congratulate: thou’rt chosen consul
I hear.
Lat. That’s a month hence. I care not, Seneca,
If I shall live to sacrifice my ox.
Sen. Most ominous words!
Lat.Excuse my liberty.
Luc. Liberty! nay, if thou have any of that,
Thou mayst indeed despair to live a month.
Sen. What purpose brings you, sirs? Pray you be seated.
