Scene 3.7

A

Or, I will beare no mind. How now, Aurelia?

Are your confederates come? the Ladies?

V

Yes.

A

And is Sempronia there?

V

She is.

A

That is well.

She has a sulphurous spirit, and will take Light at a sparke. Breake with them, gentle loue, About the drawing as many of their Husbands, Into the plot, as can: if not, to rid them.

That will be the easier practise, vnto some, Who have bene tir'd with them long. Sollicite Their aydes, for money; and their Seruants helpe, In firing of the Citie, at the time Shall be design'd. Promise them States, and Empires, And men, for Louers, made of better clay, Then euer the old Potter Titan knew.

Who is that? O, Porcius Lecca! are they met?

F

They are all, here.

A

Loue, you have your instructions.

I will trust you with the stuffe you have to worke on.

You will forme it? Porcius, fetch the siluer Eagle I gave you in charge. And pray them, they will enter.
