The curelesse griefes that vexe him still

For feare and faintnes falleth?

O Antonie with thy deare mate

Both in misfortunes fortunate!

Whose thoughts to death aspiring

Shall you protect from victors rage,

Who on each side doth you encage,

To triumph much desiring.

That Cæsar may you not offend

Nought else but Death can you defend,
