He taught me perfectly, that is to hate him.
Pop. Thy hate and love go by half measures, Nero.
Tig. ’Twere pretty, Cæsar, wert thou a private person,
To play the philosopher upon the man
Who led thee astray—albeit to sacrifice
Thy wife and friend,—if he who saved thy life
May style himself thy friend . . .
Ner.Yes, friend; thou savedst
My life to-day.
