SCENE VI.
Antony and Eros.Ant.
She flies our vengeance—No matter—let her live
To infamy, for ages!—
O, Eros, Eros, the long day is done,
And we must sleep.—
Rather than stoop to such a thing as Cæsar,
Come, Egypt, pile thy pyramids upon me,
Till they do scale the bluest vault of heaven,
And heave against the stars!
Eros.
If that my noblest master be so minded,
Why, there's an end then—
When the light's out, 'tis only to lie down,
And stray no further.
