Antony and Cleopatra
Antony and Cleopatra
Book Excerpt
EOPATRA.
Hear the ambassadors.
Hear the ambassadors.
ANTONY.
Fie, wrangling queen!
Whom everything becomes,--to chide, to laugh,
To weep; whose every passion fully strives
To make itself in thee fair and admir'd!
No messenger; but thine, and all alone
To-night we'll wander through the streets and note
The qualities of people. Come, my queen;
Last night you did desire it:--speak not to us.
[Exeunt ANTONY and CLEOPATRA, with their Train.]
DEMETRIUS.
Is Caesar with Antonius priz'd so slight?
PHILO.
Sir, sometimes when he is not Antony,
He comes too short of that great property
Which still should go with Antony.
DEMETRIUS.
I am full sorry
That he approves the common liar, who
Thus speaks of him at Rome: but I will hope
Of better deeds to-morrow. Rest you happy!
[Exeunt.]
SCENE II. Alexandria. Another Room in CLEOPATRA'S palace.
