POMPEY
I’ll try you on the shore.
POMPEY
We’ll have a rematch at your feast on shore.
ANTONY
And shall, sir. Give ’s your hand.
ANTONY
Yes, we will. Let’s shake on it.
POMPEY
O Antony, You have my father’s house.
But what? We are friends. Come, down into the boat.
POMPEY
Oh, Antony, even if you’ve taken my father’s house, what is that to me? We’re friends! Come, this way to the rowboat.
125 ENOBARBUS
Take heed you fall not.
ENOBARBUS
Be careful not to fall in.
Exeunt all but MENAS and ENOBARBUS
Everyone exits except MENAS and ENOBARBUS.
Menas, I’ll not on shore.
Menas, I’m not going back on shore.
MENAS
No, to my cabin. These drums, these trumpets, flutes! What!
Let Neptune hear we bid a loud farewell
To these great fellows. Sound and be hanged, sound out!
MENAS
No, come to my cabin. We’ll have the musicians play drums, trumpets, flutes. What do you say? We’ll make Neptune hear us bid a loud good night to these great men. Play and be damned. Play loud!
Sound a flourish, with drums
Trumpets and drums play a fanfare.
ENOBARBUS
Hoo! says ’a. There’s my cap.
ENOBARBUS
Hooray, I say. There’s my hat!
He flings it in the air
He throws his hat in the air.
130 MENAS
Hoo! Noble captain, come.
MENAS
Hooray! Come on, noble captain.
Exeunt
They exit. http://ping.fm/JBewx
