Lep.
Ay, and they think themselves Deeply dishonour'd where they are omitted, As if they were necessities that help'd To the perfection of their dignities; And hate the men that but refrain them.
Arr.
O!
There is a farther cause of hate. Their b.r.e.a.s.t.s Are guilty, that we know their obscure springs, And base beginnings; thence the anger grows.
On. Follow.
SCENE IX.-Another part of the same.
Enter MACRO and LACO.
Mac.
When all are enter'd, shut the temple doors; And bring your guards up to the gate.
Lac. I will.
Mac.
If you shall hear commotion in the senate, Present yourself: and charge on any man Shall offer to come forth.
Lac. I am instructed. [Exeunt.

Hat. How well, his lordship looks to-day!
Tri.
As if He had been born, or made for this hour's state.
Cat. Your fellow consul's come about, methinks?
Tri. Ay, he is wise.

Tri. Seja.n.u.s is a n.o.ble, bounteous lord.
Hat. He is so, and most valiant.
Lat. And most wise.
1 Sen. He's every thing.
Lat.
Worthy of all, and more Than bounty can bestow.
Tri.
This dignity Will make him worthy.
Pom. Above Caesar.
San.
Tut, Caesar is but the rector of an isle, He of the empire.
Tri.
Now he will have power More to reward than ever.
Cat.
Let us look We be not slack in giving him our voices.
Lat. Not I.
San. Nor I.
Col.
The readier we seem To propagate his honours, will more bind His thoughts to ours.
Hat.
I think right with your lordship; It is the way to have us hold our places.
San. Ay, and get more.
Lat. More office and more t.i.tles.
Pom.
I will not lose the part I hope to share I n these his fortunes, for my patrimony.
Lat. See, how Arruntius sits, and Lepidus!
Tri. Let them alone, they will be mark'd anon.
1 Sen. I'll do with others.
2 Sen. So will I.
3 Sen.
And I.
Men grow not in the state, but as they are planted Warm in his favours.
Col. n.o.ble Seja.n.u.s!
Hat. Honour'd Seja.n.u.s!
Lat. Worthy and great Seja.n.u.s!
