SCENE VI.
Brutus, Proculus.BRUTUS.
It cannot be.—The more I weigh the Crime,
The more I am confirm'd he's Innocent.
The Man who fought so bravely for his Country,
Could ne'er conspire to aid the Foes of Rome;
Nor from th'exalted Heights of Godlike Virtue,
Sink down at once a most abandon'd Villain!
PROCULUS.
Perhaps Messala spread this false Report,
To countenance his own destructive Scheme.
BRUTUS.
Would to the Gods it prove no more!
PROCULUS.
But if 'tis possible to think him guilty;
Th'indulgent Senate still allows his Pardon.
You may preserve this Heroe for the State.
He's now your only Son.
BRUTUS.
I am a Roman Consul.
