And still doth speake, and still speakes but the same:

Now bids farewell, and now recalles him backe,

Tels what was told, and bids againe farewell,

And yet againe recalles; for still doth lacke

Something that Loue would faine and cannot tell:

Pleased he should goe, yet cannot let him goe.

So she, although she knew there was no way

But this, yet this she could not handle so

But she must shew that life desir’d delay.

But this is little more than by-play and make-believe. She does the deed, and when Caesar’s messengers arrive, it is past prevention.
