ALL Most heavy
day!
|
ALL It’s a very sad day.
|
ANTONY Nay, good my fellows, do not please sharp fate
To grace it with your sorrows. Bid that welcome
140Which comes to punish us, and we punish it,
Seeming to bear it lightly. Take me up.
I have led you oft; carry me now, good friends,
And have my thanks for all.
|
ANTONY No, my friends, don’t please fate by giving it your sorrow as
well. If we welcome our punishment, we punish it right back by
seeming to take it lightly. Pick me up. I have often led you, now
you must carry me, my good friends—and take my thanks for
everything.

Exeunt, bearing ANTONY
and the body of EROS

They exit, carrying ANTONY
and EROS’ body.
