Table of Contents
Otho.
Soldiers.
[After Otho had been partially defeated by Vitellius, his soldiers clamoured to be led again to battle. Otho refused in the manner shown here in brief.]
Soldiers.Once more to battle, Otho!
Otho. Soldiers.Once more to battle, Otho!No, not for Rome’s sake.
Soldiers.Cæsar, once more!
Otho. Soldiers.Cæsar, once more!Is Rome forgotten then?
Soldiers.To battle, Cæsar!
Big Soldier. Soldiers.To battle, Cæsar!Hear us, little Cæsar!
Bearded Soldier.Are we, then, dogs that Cæsar will not lead us?
Soldiers.Ah!
Bearded Soldier.Did we fly? Are we mercenaries?
Soldiers.Ah!
Young Soldier.Blood, blood, blood!
Big Soldier. Young Soldier.Blood, blood, blood!Listen, pretty one, listen!
Soldiers.Once more, Otho, once more!
Centurion. Soldiers.Once more, Otho, once more!You mongrels, peace!
Small Soldier.I smoke for battle, Cæsar. I’ll fail thee no more.
Soldiers.God Cæsar, lead us!
Young Soldier(beating his shield). Blood, blood,
blood, blood, blood!
Soldiers. To battle, Cæsar!
Bearded Soldier. Soldiers. To battle, Cæsar!Are we Egyptians?
Centurion. Bearded Soldier. Soldiers. To battle, Cæsar!Are we Egyptians?Peace!
Big Soldier.Hear, pretty one, hear!
Otho. Big Soldier.Hear, pretty one, hear!For this your love these thanks.
For your great hearts my heart. My blood for yours
As yours would flow for mine. This life for all,
And for my country.
Soldier. And for my country.Let us die for it then.
Another.These kisses for your feet.
Young Soldier(gashing his arm). This blood to wash them!
Another(doing the same). And this to keep you Cæsar.
Otho. Another(doing the same). And this to keep you Cæsar.I am that—
And would not be it. For about the world
The warlike pest is blown, and Cæsar stands
Knee-deep in blood, or is not Cæsar. Cease!
Keep me no more with Fortune. She and I
Are wedded-weary of each other.
Soldiers. Are wedded-weary of each other.War! War!
Centurion.Dogs! Listen while great Cæsar speaks.
Soldiers. Centurion.Dogs! Listen while great Cæsar speaks.To war!
Old Soldier.See, Cæsar, how these wounds burst out once more
With blood that clamours to be shed for thee!
Otho.For this great love my thanks, brave hearts. My tears
Do thank you. So my country’s bitter wounds
Burst out with blood once more for me. O there!
Too much already have those dreadful wounds
Bled gouts and gushes of black blood for me—
For nothing. What am I—no god, a man—
To loose the life of myriads and to make
Italy a charnel for a name? Enough.
The battle was against us. Let it be.
The gods have spoken, and love not to warn
In vain. I am resolved. I’ll war no more.
Soldiers.Ah! Ah!
Small Soldier. Soldiers.Ah! Ah!We are not vanquisht!
Otho. Small Soldier. Soldiers.Ah! Ah!We are not vanquisht!But not victors.
The omens are adverse. Vitellius wins.
What matter if he win? So let him win.
Shall Rome be river’d with her children’s blood
That he or I should wear a purple rag?
What is’t to Rome who should be Cæsar? Hear.
We Cæsars rise, and rule, and rot—yet are
But as the names of nothing for a time;
The marks on foolish calendars of days
For farmers’ fruit-trees and memorial stones—
Notches on sticks, and gossip for winter nights;
Add not a corngrain to the goodman’s store,
A word to wisdom, nor a stave to song;
Nor worth the delving of a ditch to hide
Our bones in, less a dreadful sepulchre
To hold the harvest of a continent.
For which of us shall Italy be more fair?
Will yonder sun more brightly beam for me
