William Shakespeare Julius Caesar Act III Scene
2 Romans, countrymen, and lovers! hear me for
mycause, and be silent, that you may hear
believe mefor mine honour, and have respect to
mine honour, thatyou may believe censure me in
your wisdom, andawake your senses, that you may
the better judge.If there be any in this
assembly, any dear friend ofCaesar's, to him I
say, that Brutus' love to Caesarwas no less than
his. If then that friend demandwhy Brutus rose
against Caesar, this is my answerNot that I
loved Caesar less, but that I lovedRome more.
Had you rather Caesar were living anddie all
slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to liveall
free men? As Caesar loved me, I weep for himas
he was fortunate, I rejoice at it as he
wasvaliant, I honour him but, as he was
ambitious, Islew him. There is tears for his
love joy for hisfortune honour for his valour
and death for hisambition. Who is here so base
that would be abondman? If any, speak for him
have I offended.Who is here so rude that would
not be a Roman? Ifany, speak for him have I
offended. Who is here sovile that will not love
his country? If any, speakfor him have I
offended. I pause for a reply.

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. The
evil that men do lives after them The good is
oft interred with their bones So let it be with
Caesar. The noble Brutus Hath told you Caesar
was ambitious If it were so, it was a grievous
fault, And grievously hath Caesar answered it.
(Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest For
Brutus is an honorable man So are they all, all
honorable men ) Come I to speak in Caesars
funeral. He was my friend, faithful and just to
me But Brutus says he was ambitious And
Brutus is an honorable man. He hath brought many
captives home to Rome, Whose ransoms did the
general coffers fill Did this in Caesar seem
ambitious? When that the poor had cried, Caesar
hath wept. Ambition should be made of sterner
stuff Yet Brutus says he was ambitious And
Brutus is an honorable man.

You all did see that on the Lupercal I thrice
presented him a kingly crown, Which he did
thrice refuse was this ambition? Yet Brutus
says he was ambitious And, sure, he is an
honorable man. I speak not to disprove what
Brutus spoke, But here I am to speak what I do
know. You all did love him once, not without
cause What cause withholds you then to mourn
for him? O judgment! Thou art fled to brutish
beasts, And men have lost their reason! Bear
with me My heart is in the coffin there with
Caesar, And I must pause till it come back to
me.
