SATURNINUS And you have rung it lustily, my lord;
Somewhat too early for new-married ladies.
BASSIANUS Lavinia, how say you?
LAVINIA I say, no;
I have been broad awake two hours and more.
SATURNINUS Come on, then; horse and chariots let us have,
And to our sport.
[To TAMORA]
Madam, now shall ye see
Our Roman hunting.
MARCUS ANDRONICUS I have dogs, my lord,
Will rouse the proudest panther in the chase,
And climb the highest promontory top.
TITUS ANDRONICUS And I have horse will follow where the game
Makes way, and run like swallows o'er the plain.
DEMETRIUS Chiron, we hunt not, we, with horse nor hound,
But hope to pluck a dainty doe to ground.
[Exeunt]
TITUS ANDRONICUS
ACT II
SCENE III A lonely part of the forest.
[Enter AARON, with a bag of gold]
AARON He that had wit would think that I had none,
To bury so much gold under a tree,
And never after to inherit it.
Let him that thinks of me so abjectly
Know that this gold must coin a stratagem,
Which, cunningly effected, will beget
A very excellent piece of villany:
And so repose, sweet gold, for their unrest
[Hides the gold]
That have their alms out of the empress' chest.
