BRUTUS
’Tis good. Go to the gate; somebody knocks. 63
< Lucius exits. >
Since Cassius first did whet me against Caesar, 64
I have not slept. 65
Between the acting of a dreadful thing 66
And the first motion, all the interim is 67
Like a phantasma or a hideous dream. 68
The genius and the mortal instruments 69
Are then in council, and the state of man, 70
Like to a little kingdom, suffers then 71
The nature of an insurrection. 72
Enter Lucius.
