＇Within： 'A way there； a way for Caesar！'＇
Re…enter CAESAR and all his train
DOLABELLA。 O sir； you are too sure an augurer： That you did fear
is done。 CAESAR。 Bravest at the last； She levell'd at our purposes； and
being royal； Took her own way。 The manner of their deaths？ I do not see
them bleed。 DOLABELLA。 Who was last with them？ FIRST GUARD。 A
simple countryman that brought her figs。 This was his basket。 CAESAR。
Poison'd then。 FIRST GUARD。 O Caesar； This Charmian liv'd but now；
she stood and spake。 I found her trimming up the diadem On her dead
mistress。 Tremblingly she stood； And on the sudden dropp'd。 CAESAR。 O
noble weakness！ If they had swallow'd poison 'twould appear By external
swelling； but she looks like sleep； As she would catch another Antony In
her strong toil of grace。 DOLABELLA。 Here on her breast There is a vent
of blood； and something blown； The like is on her arm。 FIRST GUARD。
This is an aspic's trail； and these fig…leaves Have slime upon them； such as
th' aspic leaves Upon the caves of Nile。 CAESAR。 Most probable That so
she died； for her physician tells me She hath pursu'd conclusions infinite
Of easy ways to die。 Take up her bed； And bear her women from the
monument。 She shall be buried by her Antony； No grave upon the earth
shall clip in it A pair so famous。 High events as these Strike those that
make them； and their story is No less in pity than his glory which Brought
them to be lamented。 Our army shall In solemn show attend this funeral；
