Antony and Cleopatra, IV. v
93

Enter Captains and Soldiers.

Capt. The morn is fair. Good morrow, general. 24

All. Good morrow, general.

Ant. 'Tis well blown, lads.
This morning, like the spirit of a youth
That means to be of note, begins betimes.
So, so; come, give me that: this way; well said. 28
Fare thee well, dame, whate'er becomes of me;
This is a soldier's kiss. [Kisses her.] Rebukeable
And worthy shameful check it were, to stand
On more mechanic compliment; I'll leave thee 32
Now, like a man of steel. You that will fight,
Follow me close; I'll bring you to 't. Adieu.

Exeunt [Antony, Eros, Captains, and Soldiers].

Char. Please you, retire to your chamber.

Cleo. Lead me.
He goes forth gallantly. That he and Cæsar might 36
Determine this great war in single fight!
Then, Antony,—but now.—Well, on. Exeunt.

Sold. Hadst thou done so,
