(As Cassius enters with Titinius, two of his soldiers drop their swords and run away. He points angrily.)
Pindarus: (Entering with alarm) Fly further off, my lord. Mark Antony is in your tents, my lord. Fly, therefore, noble Cassius, fly far off.
Titinius: (To Cassius, as he leaves to check on the situation) I will be here again even with a thought.
Announcer 1: But Cassius thinks the war is lost.
Cassius: (To Pindarus) Come hither, sirrah. In Parthia did I take thee prisoner. Now be a freeman, and with the good sward, that ran through Caesar's bowels, search this bosom.
