Bru. Thou hast described[3392]
A hot friend cooling: ever note, Lucilius,[3392]
When love begins to sicken and decay,[3392] 20
It useth an enforced ceremony.[3392]
There are no tricks in plain and simple faith:[3392]
But hollow men, like horses hot at hand,[3392]
Make gallant show and promise of their mettle,[3392]
But when they should endure the bloody spur,[3392] 25
They fall their crests and like deceitful jades[3392][3394]
Sink in the trial. Comes his army on?[3392][3395]
Lucil. They mean this night in Sardis to be quarter'd;[3392]
The greater part, the horse in general,[3392]
Are come with Cassius.[3392] [Low march within.
Bru. Hark! he is arrived:[3392][3396] 30
March gently on to meet him.[3397]
Enter Cassius and his powers.[3398]
Cas. Stand, ho![3399]
Bru. Stand, ho! Speak the word along.[3400]
First Sol. Stand![3401]
Sec. Sol. Stand![3402] 35
Third Sol. Stand![3403]
Cas. Most noble brother, you have done me wrong.
