Cas. There's a bargain made. 120
Now know you, Casca, I have moved already
Some certain of the noblest-minded Romans[2986]
To undergo with me an enterprise
Of honourable-dangerous consequence;[2987]
And I do know, by this they stay for me[2988] 125
In Pompey's porch: for now, this fearful night,
There is no stir or walking in the streets,
And the complexion of the element[2989]
In favour's like the work we have in hand,[2990]
Most bloody, fiery, and most terrible.[2991] 130
Enter Cinna.[2992]
Casca. Stand close awhile, for here comes one in haste.
Cas. 'Tis Cinna; I do know him by his gait;[2993]
He is a friend. Cinna, where haste you so?
Cin. To find out you. Who's that? Metellus Cimber?
Cas. No, it is Casca; one incorporate 135
To our attempts. Am I not stay'd for, Cinna?[2994]
Cin. I am glad on't. What a fearful night is this![2995]
There's two or three of us have seen strange sights.
Cas. Am I not stay'd for? tell me.
Cin. Yes, you are.[2996][2997]
O Cassius, if you could[2997][2998] 140
But win the noble Brutus to our party—[2997][2998]
Cas. Be you content: good Cinna, take this paper,
And look you lay it in the prætor's chair,
Where Brutus may but find it, and throw this[2999]
In at his window; set this up with wax 145
Upon old Brutus' statue: all this done,[3000]
Repair to Pompey's porch, where you shall find us.
Is Decius Brutus and Trebonius there?[3001]
