ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA
SCENE VII。 Field of battle between the camps
Alarum。 Drums and trumpets。 Enter AGRIPPA and others
AGRIPPA。 Retire。 We have engag'd ourselves too far。 Caesar himself
has work； and our oppression Exceeds what we expected。 Exeunt
Alarums。 Enter ANTONY； and SCARUS wounded
SCARUS。 O my brave Emperor； this is fought indeed！ Had we done
so at first； we had droven them home With clouts about their heads。
ANTONY。 Thou bleed'st apace。 SCARUS。 I had a wound here that was
like a T； But now 'tis made an H。 ANTONY。 They do retire。 SCARUS。
We'll beat'em into bench…holes。 I have yet Room for six scotches more。
Enter EROS
EROS。 They are beaten； sir； and our advantage serves For a fair
victory。 SCARUS。 Let us score their backs And snatch 'em up； as we take
hares； behind。 'Tis sport to maul a runner。 ANTONY。 I will reward thee
Once for thy sprightly comfort； and tenfold For thy good valour。 Come
thee on。 SCARUS。 I'll halt after。 Exeunt

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA
SCENE VIII。 Under the walls of Alexandria
Alarum。 Enter ANTONY； again in a march； SCARUS with others
ANTONY。 We have beat him to his camp。 Run one before And let the
Queen know of our gests。 To…morrow； Before the sun shall see's； we'll spill
the blood That has to…day escap'd。 I thank you all； For doughty…handed are
you； and have fought Not as you serv'd the cause； but as't had been Each
man's like mine； you have shown all Hectors。 Enter the city； clip your
wives； your friends； Tell them your feats； whilst they with joyful tears
Wash the congealment from your wounds and kiss The honour'd gashes
whole。
Enter CLEOPATRA； attended
＇To SCARUS＇ Give me thy hand… To this great fairy I'll commend thy
acts； Make her thanks bless thee。 O thou day o' th' world； Chain mine
arm'd neck。 Leap thou； attire and all； Through proof of harness to my heart；
and there Ride on the pants triumphing。 CLEOPATRA。 Lord of lords！ O
infinite virtue； com'st thou smiling from The world's great snare uncaught？
ANTONY。 Mine nightingale； We have beat them to their beds。 What； girl！
though grey Do something mingle with our younger brown； yet ha' we A
brain that nourishes our nerves； and can Get goal for goal of youth。 Behold
this man； Commend unto his lips thy favouring hand… Kiss it； my warrior…
he hath fought to…day As if a god in hate of mankind had Destroyed in
such a shape。 CLEOPATRA。 I'll give thee； friend； An armour all of gold； it
was a king's。 ANTONY。 He has deserv'd it； were it carbuncled Like holy
Phoebus' car。 Give me thy hand。 Through Alexandria make a jolly march；
Bear our hack'd targets like the men that owe them。 Had our great palace
the capacity To camp this host； we all would sup together； And drink
carouses to the next day's fate； Which promises royal peril。 Trumpeters；
With brazen din blast you the city's ear； Make mingle with our rattling
tabourines； That heaven and earth may strike their sounds together
Applauding our approach。 Exeunt

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA
SCENE IX。 CAESAR'S camp
Enter a CENTURION and his company； ENOBARBUS follows
CENTURION。 If we be not reliev'd within this hour； We must return
to th' court of guard。 The night Is shiny； and they say we shall embattle By
th' second hour i' th' morn。 FIRST WATCH。 This last day was A shrewd
one to's。 ENOBARBUS。 O； bear me witness； night… SECOND WATCH。
What man is this？ FIRST WATCH。 Stand close and list him。
ENOBARBUS。 Be witness to me； O thou blessed moon； When men
revolted shall upon record Bear hateful memory； poor Enobarbus did
Before thy face repent！ CENTURION。 Enobarbus？ SECOND WATCH。
Peace！ Hark further。 ENOBARBUS。 O sovereign mistress of true
melancholy； The poisonous damp of night disponge upon me； That life； a
very rebel to my will； May hang no longer on me。 Throw my heart Against
the flint and hardness of my fault； Which； being dried with grief； will
break to powder； And finish all foul thoughts。 O Antony； Nobler than my
revolt is infamous； Forgive me in thine own particular； But let the world
rank me in register A master…leaver and a fugitive！ O Antony！ O Antony！
＇Dies＇ FIRST WATCH。 Let's speak to him。 CENTURION。 Let's hear him；
for the things he speaks May concern Caesar。 SECOND WATCH。 Let's do
so。 But he sleeps。 CENTURION。 Swoons rather； for so bad a prayer as his
Was never yet for sleep。 FIRST WATCH。 Go we to him。 SECOND
WATCH。 Awake； sir； awake； speak to us。 FIRST WATCH。 Hear you； sir？
CENTURION。 The hand of death hath raught him。 ＇Drums afar off ＇ Hark！
the drums Demurely wake the sleepers。 Let us bear him To th' court of
guard； he is of note。 Our hour Is fully out。 SECOND WATCH。 Come on；
then； He may recover yet。 Exeunt with the body

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA
SCENE X。 Between the two camps
Enter ANTONY and SCARUS； with their army
ANTONY。 Their preparation is to…day by sea； We please them not by
land。 SCARUS。 For both； my lord。 ANTONY。 I would they'd fight i' th'
fire or i' th' air； We'd fight there too。 But this it is； our foot Upon the hills
adjoining to the city Shall stay with us… Order for sea is given； They have
put forth the haven… Where their appointment we may best discover And
look on their endeavour。 Exeunt

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA
SCENE XI。 Between the camps
Enter CAESAR and his army
CAESAR。 But being charg'd； we will be still by land； Which； as I
take't； we shall； for his best force Is forth to man his galleys。 To the vales；
And hold our best advantage。 Exeunt

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA
SCENE XII。 A hill near Alexandria
Enter ANTONY and SCARUS
ANTONY。 Yet they are not join'd。 Where yond pine does stand I shall
discover all。 I'll bring thee word Straight how 'tis like to go。 Exit SCARUS。
Swallows have built In Cleopatra's sails their nests。 The augurers Say they
know not； they cannot tell； look grimly； And dare not speak their
knowledge。 Antony Is valiant and dejected； and by starts His fretted
fortunes give him hope and fear Of what he has and has not。 ＇Alarum afar
off； as at a sea…fight＇
Re…enter ANTONY
ANTONY。 All is lost！ This foul Egyptian hath betrayed me。 My fleet
hath yielded to the foe； and yonder They cast their caps up and carouse
together Like friends long lost。 Triple…turn'd whore！ 'tis thou Hast sold me
to this novice； and my heart Makes only wars on thee。 Bid them all fly；
For when I am reveng'd upon my charm； I have done all。 Bid them all fly；
begone。 Exit SCARUS O sun； thy uprise shall I see no more！ Fortune and
Antony part here； even here Do we shake hands。 All come to this？ The
hearts That spaniel'd me at heels； to whom I gave Their wishes； do
discandy； melt their sweets On blossoming Caesar； and this pine is bark'd
That overtopp'd them all。 Betray'd I am。 O this false soul of Egypt！ this
grave charm… Whose eye beck'd forth my wars and call'd them home；
Whose bosom was my crownet； my chief end… Like a right gypsy hath at
fast and loose Beguil'd me to the very heart of loss。 What； Eros； Eros！
Enter CLEOPATRA
Ah； thou spell！ Avaunt！ CLEOPATRA。 Why is my lord enrag'd
against his love？ ANTONY。 Vanish； or I shall give thee thy deserving And
blemish Caesar's triumph。 Let him take thee And hoist thee up to the
shouting plebeians； Follow his chariot； like the greatest spot Of all thy sex；
most monster…like； be shown For poor'st diminutives； for doits； and let
Patient Octavi
