Julius Cæsar, IV. iii  

Cas. And died so?

Bru. Even so.

Cas. O ye immortal gods!

Enter Boy [Lucius], with wine and tapers.

Bru. Speak no more of her. Give me a bowl of wine. In this I bury all unkindness, Cassius.

Cas. My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. Fill, Lucius, till the wine o'erswell the cup; I cannot drink too much of Brutus' love.

Bru. Come in, Titinius.

Enter Titinius and Messala.

Welcome, good Messala. Now sit we close about this taper here, And call in question our necessities.

Cas. Portia, art thou gone?

Bru. No more, I pray you. Messala, I have here received letters. That young Octavius and Mark Antony Come down upon us with a mighty power, Bending their expedition towards Philippi.

Mes. Myself have letters of the self-same tenour.

Bru. With what addition?

Mes. That by proscription and bills of outlawry, Octavius, Antony, and Lepidus, Have put to death an hundred senators.

Bru. Therein our letters do not well agree; Mine speak of seventy senators that died By their proscriptions, Cicero being one.

Cas. Cicero one?  164 call in question: bring up for discussion 169 Bending expedition: directing their march
