Cassilanes:

Let not my services,
My being forty years a drudge, a pack-horse
To you, and to the State, be branded now
With Ignominy ne're to be forgotten:
Rear me no Monument, unless you mean
To have me fam'd a Coward, and be stamp'd so.

Possenne:

We understand you not.

Cassilanes:

Proud boy, thou dost,
And Tyrant-like insult'st upon my shame.

Antinous:

Sir, Heaven can tell, and my integrity,
What I did, was but only to inforce
The Senates gratitude. I now acknowledge it.

Cassilanes:

Observe it Fathers, how this haughty boy
Grows cunning in his envy of mine honours:
He knows no mention can of me be made,
But that it ever likewise must be told,

Here in the Capitol, before the Senate,

Confirm me; henceforth never see my face,
Be, as thou art, a villain to thy Father.

Gonzalo:

Here's a strange high-born spirit.

Possenne:

'Tis but heat
Of suddain present rage; I dare assure _Antinous_ of his favour.

Antinous:

I not doubt it,
He is both a good man, and a good Father.
I shall attend your Lordships.

Possenne:

Do _Antinous_.

Gonzalo:

Yes: feast thy Triumphs
With applause and pleasures.

Porphycio Possenne:

Lead on.

Antinous:

I utterly renounce--'Twas so?
Was't not, my _Decius_?

Decius:

Pish, you know, my Lord,
Old men are cholerick.

Antinous:

And lastly parted
With, never henceforth see my face: O me,
How have I lost a Father? Such a Father!
Such a one _Decius_! I am miserable,
Beyond expression.

Decius:

Fie, how unbecoming
This shews upon your day of fame!

Antinous:

O mischief!
I must no more come near him; that I know,
