Cassius Monologue from Julius Caesar

From Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare

male · anguished · 58 sec

Come down; behold no more. O, coward that I am, to live so long, To see my best friend ta’en before my face! Come hither, sirrah. In Parthia did I take thee prisoner; And then I swore thee, saving of thy life, That whatsoever I did bid thee do, Thou shouldst attempt it. Come now, keep thine oath. Now be a freeman; and with this good sword, That ran through Caesar’s bowels, search this bosom. Stand not to answer. Here, take thou the hilts; And when my face is cover’d, as ’tis now, Guide thou the sword.—Caesar, thou art reveng’d, Even with the sword that kill’d thee.
