We are not pleased, in this sad accident, That thus hath stalled, and abused our mercy, Intended to preserve thee, noble Roman: And to prevent thy hopes. Excellent wolf! Now he is full, he howls. CAESAR doth wrong His dignity, and safety, thus to mourn The deserved end of so professed a traitor, And doth, by this his lenity, instruct Others as factious, to the like offence. The confiscation merely of his state Had been enough. O, that was gaped for then? Remove the body. Let citation Go out for SOSIA. Let her be proscribed. And for the goods, I think it fit that half Go to the treasure, half unto the children. With leave of CAESAR, I would think, that fourth Part, which the law doth cast on the informers, Should be enough; the rest go to the children: Wherein the Prince shall show humanity, And bounty, not to force them by their want (Which in their parents' trespass they deserved) To take ill courses. It shall please us. ay, Out of necessity. This Lepidus Is grave and honest, and I have observed A moderation still in all his censures. And bending to the better— Stay, who's this? CREMUTIUS CORDUS? what? is he brought in? More blood unto the banquet? Noble CORDUS, I wish thee good: Be as thy writings, free, And honest. What is he? For th'Annal's, CAESAR. CREMVTIVS CORDꝰ. Here. SATRIUS SECVNDus, PINNARIUS NATTA, you are his accusers. Two of Sejanus bloodhounds, whom he breeds With human flesh, to bay at citizens. Stand forth before the Senate, and confront him. I do accuse thee here, CREMUTIUS CORDUS, To be a man factious, and dangerous, A sower of sedition in the state, A turbulent, and discontented spirit, Which I will prove from thine own writings, here, The annals thou hast published; where thou bit'st The present age, and with a viper's tooth, Being a member of it, dar'st that ill Which never yet degenerous bastard did Upon his parent. To this, I subscribe; And, forth a world of more particulars, Instance in only one: Comparing men, And times, thou praisest BRUTUS, and affirmest That CASSIUS was the last of all the Romans. How! what are we then? What is CAESAR? nothing? My lords, this strikes at every Romans private, In whom reigns gentry, and estate of spirit, To have a BRUTUS brought in parallel, A parricide, an enemy of his country, Ranked, and preferred to any real worth That Rome now holds. This is most strangely invective. Most full of spite, and insolent upbraiding. Nor is't the time alone is here dizprized, But the whole man of time, yea CAESAR'S self Brought in disvalue; and he aimed at most By oblique glance of his licentious pen. CAESAR, if CASSIUS were the last of Romans, Thou hast no name.

CAESAR doth wrong His dignitie, and safetie, thus to mourne The deseru'd end of so profest a traytor, And doth, by this his lenitie, instruct Others as factious, to the like offence. The confiscation meerely of his state Had beene inough. O, that was gap'd for then? Remoue the body. Let citation Goe out for SOSIA. Let her be proscrib'd. And for the goods, I thinke it fit that halfe Goe to the treasure, halfe vnto the children. With leaue of CAESAR, I would thinke, that fourth Part, which the law doth cast on the informers, Should be inough; the rest goe to the children: Wherein the Prince shall shew humanitie, And bountie, not to force them by their want (Which in their parents trespasse they deseru'd) To take ill courses. It shall please vs. I, Out of necessitie. This LEPIDVS Is graue and honest, and I haue obseru'd A moderation still in all his censures. And bending to the better—Stay, who's this?
