Sic. Have you a catalogue
Of all the voices that we have procured,[3350]
Set down by the poll?[3350][3351]
Æd. I have; 'tis ready. 10
Sic. Have you collected them by tribes?
Æd. I have.[3352]
Sic. Assemble presently the people hither:
And when they hear me say 'It shall be so
I' the right and strength o' the commons,' be it either[3353]
For death, for fine, or banishment, then let them, 15
If I say fine, cry 'Fine,' if death, cry 'Death,'
Insisting on the old prerogative[3354]
And power i' the truth o' the cause.
Æd. I shall inform them.[3355]
Bru. And when such time they have begun to cry,
Let them not cease, but with a din confused 20
Enforce the present execution
Of what we chance to sentence.
Æd. Very well.
Sic. Make them be strong, and ready for this hint,
When we shall hap to give't them.
Bru. Go about it. [Exit Ædile.[3356]
Put him to choler straight: he hath been used 25
Ever to conquer and to have his worth[3357][3358][3359]
Of contradiction: being once chafed, he cannot[3358]
Be rein'd again to temperance; then he speaks
What's in his heart; and that is there which looks[3360]
With us to break his neck.
