SCENE IX.
Enter Segestes on the Rampart.Segestes.
My friends, I come to warn you of your fate.
Though foes in war, yet you are Germans still.
Break up your camp, or sure destruction hangs
On your devoted heads. A band of Romans
From the high waving forest, where they lay
Lodg'd in close ambush, down the steep descent
Rush'd on th'astonish'd foe. I see them now!
They charge, they fight, they dye their swords in blood;
They bear down all, they follow, and they conquer:
Germans, be warn'd by me; depart at once;
Fly from the fury of a conqu'ring foe.
[Exit.
