Trebonius. Cæsar, I will. [Aside][169] And so near will I be,

125That your best friends shall wish I had been further.

Cæsar. Good friends, go in and taste some wine with me;

And we, like friends, will straightway go together.

Brutus. [Aside][170] That every like is not the same, O Cæsar,

The heart of Brutus yearns[171][172] to think upon!

[Exeunt]

[ II. 3 Scene III.][173] A street near the Capitol

Enter Artemidorus[174], reading a paper[175]

Artemidorus. Cæsar, beware of Brutus; take heed of Cassius; come not near Casca; have an eye to Cinna; trust not Trebonius; mark well Metellus Cimber; Decius Brutus loves thee not; thou hast wrong'd Caius Ligarius. There is but one mind in all these men, and it is bent against Cæsar. If thou beest not immortal, look about you: security gives way to[176] conspiracy. The mighty gods defend thee!
