Treason has done his worst; nor steel nor poison / Malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing / Can touch him further.
Then stand with us. The west yet glimmers with some streaks of day.
Thou canst not say I did it. Never shake / Thy gory locks at me.

Why, by the verities on thee made good / May they not be my oracles as well / And set me up in hope? But hush, no more.
My genius is rebuked, as it is said / Mark Antony’s was by Caesar.
Acquaint you with the perfect spy o’ th’ time / The moment on ’t; for ’t must be done tonight…
Whose heavy hand hath bowed you to the grave / And beggared yours forever?
Upon my head they placed a fruitless crown,
and put a barren scepter in my grip.
