As you threw caps up will he tumble down,
And pay you for your voices. ’Tis no matter.
If he could burn us all into one coal,
We have deserved it. [140]

CITIZENS
Faith, we hear fearful news.

FIRST CITIZEN
For mine own part,
When I said banish him, I said ’twas pity.

SECOND CITIZEN
And so did I.

THIRD CITIZEN
And so did I, and, to say the truth, so did very many of us. That we did, we
did for the best, [145] and though we willingly consented to his banishment,

yet it was against our will.

COMINIUS
Y’are goodly things, you voices!

MENENIUS
You have made good work,
You and your cry! Shall’s to the Capitol? [150]

COMINIUS
O, ay, what else?
Exeunt both.

SICINIUS
Go, masters, get you home. Be not dismayed;
These are a side that would be glad to have
This true which they so seem to fear. Go home,
And show no sign of fear. [155]
