Quarrel no more, but be prepar'd to know
The purposes I bear; which are, or cease, As you shall give theadvice. By the fire That quickens Nilus' slime, I go from hence Thy soldier, servant, making peace or war As thou affect'st. CLEOPATRA. Cut my lace, Charmian, come;-- But let it be: I am quickly ill and well, So Antony loves. ANTONY. My precious queen, forbear; And give true evidence to his love, which stands An honourable trial. CLEOPATRA. So Fulvia told me. I pr'ythee, turn aside and weep for her; Then bid adieu to me, and say the tears Belong to Egypt: good now, play one scene Of excellent dissembling; and let it look Like perfect honour. ANTONY. You'll heat my blood: no more. CLEOPATRA. You can do better yet; but this is meetly. |
