ARTEMIDORUS

"Caesar, beware of Brutus; take heed of Cassius;
| |
| |
come not near Casca; have an eye to Cinna, trust not
| |
| |
Trebonius: mark well Metellus Cimber: Decius Brutus
| |
| |
loves thee not: thou hast wronged Caius Ligarius.
| |
| 2.3.5 |
There is but one mind in all these men, and it is
| |
| |
bent against Caesar. If thou beest not immortal,
| |
| |
look about you: security gives way to conspiracy.
| security gives way to conspiracy overconfidence |
| |
The mighty gods defend thee!
| opens the door to conspiracy |
| |
Thy lover,
| lover friend, follower, well-wisher |

ARTEMIDORUS."

| |
Here will I stand till Caesar pass along,
| |
| |

| suitor one who has a favor to ask |
| |
My heart laments that virtue cannot live
| |
| |
Out of the teeth of emulation.
| Out of the teeth of emulation out of danger from |
| 2.3.15 |
If thou read this, O Caesar, thou mayst live;
| malicious envy |
| |
If not, the Fates with traitors do contrive.
| contrive conspire |
