Leaue nothing out for length, and make vs thinke
Rather our states defectiue for requitall, Then we to stretch it out. Masters a'th' People, We doe request your kindest eares: and after Your louing motion toward the common Body, To yeeld what passes here Scicin. We are conuented vpon a pleasing Treatie, and haue hearts inclinable to honor and aduance the Theame of our Assembly Brutus. Which the rather wee shall be blest to doe, if he remember a kinder value of the People, then he hath hereto priz'd them at Menen. That's off, that's off: I would you rather had been silent: Please you to heare Cominius speake? Brutus. Most willingly: but yet my Caution was more pertinent then the rebuke you giue it Menen. He loues your People, but tye him not to be their Bed-fellow: Worthie Cominius speake. Coriolanus rises, and offers to goe away. Nay, keepe your place Senat. Sit Coriolanus: neuer shame to heare What you haue Nobly done |
