Context

Text

Trumpets sound. Enter Antony and Eros, Scarus meeting them.

SCARUS: The gods make this a happy day to Antony!

MARK ANTONY: Would thou and those thy scars had once prevail’d

To make me fight at land!

SCARUS: Hadst thou done so,

The kings that have revolted, and the soldier

That has this morning left thee, would have still

Followed thy heels.

MARK ANTONY: Who’s gone this morning?

SCARUS: Who?

One ever near thee. Call for Enobarbus,

He shall not hear thee, or from Caesar’s camp

Say “I am none of thine.”

MARK ANTONY: What sayest thou?

SCARUS: Sir,

He is with Caesar.

EROS: Sir, his chests and treasure

He has not with him.

MARK ANTONY: Is he gone?

SCARUS: Most certain.

MARK ANTONY: Go, Eros, send his treasure after; do it,

Detain no jot, I charge thee. Write to him

(I will subscribe) gentle adieus and greetings;

Say that I wish he never find more cause

To change a master. O, my fortunes have

Corrupted honest men! Dispatch. Enobarbus!
