[2.3]

Enter Artemidorus [reading a paper].

1130Artemidorus

"Caesar, beware of Brutus; take heed of Cassius; come ¶not near Casca; have an eye to Cinna; trust not Trebonius; mark ¶well Metellus Cimber. Decius Brutus loves thee not. Thou ¶hast wronged Caius Ligarius. There is but one mind in all ¶these men, and it is bent against Caesar. If thou be'est not 1135immortal, look about you. Security gives way to conspiracy. ¶The mighty gods defend thee. ¶Thy lover, Artemidorus."

¶Here will I stand, till Caesar pass along,

¶And as a suitor will I give him this.

1140My heart laments that virtue cannot live

¶Out of the teeth of emulation.

¶If thou read this, O Caesar, thou mayst live;

¶If not, the Fates with traitors do contrive.

Exit.
