_Piso_. Though we would all have that imployment sought,
Yet, since your worthy forwardnesse _Scevinus_[35] Prevents us and so Nobly beggs for danger, Be this (thine?) the chosen hand to doe the deed; The fortune of the Empire speed your sword. _Scevin_. Vertue and Heaven speed it. You home-borne Gods of our countrey, _Romulus_ and _Vesta_, That _Thuscan Tiber_ and Romes towers defends, Forbid not yet at length a happie end To former evils; let this hand revenge The wronged world; enough we now have suffered. [_Exeunt_. _Manet Milichus solus_. _Mili_. Tush, all this long Consulting's more then words, It ends not there; th'have some attempt, some plot Against the state: well, I'le observe it farther And, if I find it, make my profit of it. [_Exit_. _Finis Actus Secundus. [Sic.]_ _Actus Tertius_. |
