 3.10.11973[3.10]
 3.10.2Camidius marcheth with his land army one way over the 1974stage, and Taurus the Lieutenant of Caesar the other way. 1975After their going in is heard the noise of a sea-fight. 1976Alarum.
 3.10.3Enter Enobarbus.
 3.10.41977Enobarbus
 Naught, naught, all naught! I can behold no longer.
 3.10.51978Th'Antoniad, the Egyptian Admiral,
 3.10.61979With all their sixty fly and turn the rudder!
 3.10.71980To see't mine eyes are blasted!
 3.10.81981Enter Scarrus.
 3.10.91982Scarrus
 Gods and goddesses,
 3.10.10All the whole synod of them!
 1983Enobarbus
 All the whole synod of them!  What's thy passion?
 3.10.111984Scarrus
 The greater cantle of the world is lost
 3.10.121985With very ignorance. We have kissed away
 3.10.131986Kingdoms and provinces.
 1987Enobarbus
 Kingdoms and provinces.  How appears the fight?
 3.10.141988Scarrus
 On our side, like the tokened pestilence,
 3.10.151989Where death is sure. Yon ribald nag of Egypt,
 3.10.161990Whom leprosy o'ertake, i'th'midst o'th'fight,
 3.10.171991When vantage like a pair of twins appeared
 3.10.181992Both as the same, or rather ours the elder,
 3.10.191993The breese upon her, like a cow in June,
 3.10.201994Hoists sails and flies.
 1995Enobarbus
 Hoists sails and flies.  That I beheld.
 3.10.211996Mine eyes did sicken at the sight, and could not
 3.10.221997Endure a further view.
 1998Scarrus
 Endure a further view.  She once being luffed,
 3.10.231999The noble ruin of her magic, Antony,
 3.10.242000Claps on his sea-wing, and like a doting mallard,
 3.10.252001Leaving the fight in height, flies after her.
 3.10.262002I never saw an action of such shame;
 3.10.272003Experience, manhood, honor, ne'er before
 3.10.282004Did violate so itself!
 2005Enobarbus
 Did violate so itself!  Alack, alack.
 3.10.292006Enter Camidius.
 3.10.302007Camidius
 Our fortune on the sea is out of breath
 3.10.312008And sinks most lamentably. Had our general
 3.10.322009Been what he knew himself, it had gone well.
 3.10.332010Oh, he has given example for our flight
 3.10.342011Most grossly by his own.
 3.10.352012Enobarbus
 Ay, are you thereabouts? Why then goodnight 2013indeed.
 3.10.362014Camidius
 Toward Peloponnesus are they fled.
 3.10.372015Scarrus
 'Tis easy to't, 2016and there I will attend
 3.10.38What further comes.
 2017Camidius
 What further comes.  To Caesar will I render
 3.10.392018My legions and my horse. Six kings already
 3.10.402019Show me the way of yielding.
 2020Enobarbus
 Show me the way of yielding.  I'll yet follow
 3.10.412021The wounded chance of Antony, though my reason
 3.10.422022Sits in the wind against me.
 3.10.43Exeunt separately.
