Vir. Yes, certain, there's a letter for you; I saw 't.
Men. A letter for me! it gives me an estate of seven 105
years' health; in which time I will make a lip at the physician:

home wounded. 110
Vir. O, no, no, no.
Vol. O, he is wounded; I thank the gods for't.
Men. So do I too, if it be not too much: brings a' victory[2820]
in his pocket? the wounds become him.[2821]
Vol. On's brows: Menenius, he comes the third time[2822] 115
home with the oaken garland.
Men. Has he disciplined Aufidius soundly?[2823]
Vol. Titus Lartius writes, they fought together, but
Aufidius got off.
Men. And 'twas time for him too, I'll warrant him that: 120
an he had stayed by him, I would not have been so fidiused[2824]
for all the chests in Corioli, and the gold that's in them. Is
the senate possessed of this?
Vol. Good ladies, let's go. Yes, yes, yes; the senate has
letters from the general, wherein he gives my son the whole 125
name of the war: he hath in this action outdone his former
deeds doubly.
