BRUTUS

                               Even so.



              CASSIUS
                               O ye immortal gods!


                                     Enter Boy [Lucius] with wine and tapers.



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

                                                                                                     He drinks.


              CASSIUS

               My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. [210]
               Fill, Lucius, till the wine o’erswell the cup.
               I cannot drink too much of Brutus’ love.

                                                                                     He drinks. Exit Lucius.


                                              Enter Titinius and Messala.


              BRUTUS

               Come in, Titinius. Welcome, good Messala.
               Now sit we close about this taper here,
               And call in question our necessities. [215]



              CASSIUS
          (aside)

               Portia, art thou gone?



              BRUTUS
          (aside to Cassius)
                               No more, I pray you.
               Messala, I have here receivèd letters
               That young Octavius and Mark Antony

               Come down upon us with a mighty power,
               Bending their expedition toward Philippi. [220]
