    Anthony and Cleopatra (Modern)

    [4.14]
    Enter Cleopatra, Charmian, Iras, Mardian.
    2810Cleopatra
    Help me my women! Oh, he's more mad
    Than Telamon for his shield! The boar of Thessaly
    Was never so embossed.
    Charmian
    To'th'monument,
    There lock yourself, and send him word you are dead.
    2815The soul and body rive not more in parting
    Than greatness going off.
    Cleopatra
    To'th'monument.
    Mardian, go tell him I have slain myself.
    Say that the last I spoke was "Antony,"
    2820And word it, prithee, piteously. Hence, Mardian,
    And bring me how he takes my death to'th'monument!
    Exeunt [Cleopatra, Charmian, and Iras at one door, Mardian at another door].
