BRUTUS
Remember March; the ides of March remember. 19
Did not great Julius bleed for justice’ sake? 20
What villain touched his body that did stab 21
And not for justice? What, shall one of us 22
That struck the foremost man of all this world 23
But for supporting robbers, shall we now 24
Contaminate our fingers with base bribes 25
And sell the mighty space of our large honors 26
For so much trash as may be graspèd thus? 27
I had rather be a dog and bay the moon 28
Than such a Roman. 29
[Act 4 Scene 3]
