SCENE III. A street near the Capitol.
Enter ARTEMIDORUS, reading a paper
ARTEMIDORUS
      'Caesar, beware of Brutus; take heed of Cassius;
      come not near Casca; have an eye to Cinna, trust not
      Trebonius: mark well Metellus Cimber: Decius Brutus
      loves thee not: thou hast wronged Caius Ligarius.
5     There is but one mind in all these men, and it is
      bent against Caesar. If thou beest not immortal,
      look about you: security gives way to conspiracy.
      The mighty gods defend thee! Thy lover,
      'ARTEMIDORUS.'
10    Here will I stand till Caesar pass along,
      And as a suitor will I give him this.
      My heart laments that virtue cannot live
      Out of the teeth of emulation.
      If thou read this, O Caesar, thou mayst live;
15    If not, the Fates with traitors do contrive.
