SCENE II.

 

BRUTUS, PORCIA, FULVIA, CASSIUS.

 

CASSIUS.

Brutus, at this very instant,

Agrippa is coming into the camp to present himself.

He would like to speak with us.

 

BRUTUS.

We must hear him.

 

CASSIUS.

You will see him soon. He’s a friend of Octavian,

And despite his valor he bears a slave’s heart.

Already seduced, he wants in turn to seduce us.

 

PORCIA.

Did the triumvirs dread this great day?

And has their fury, emboldened by impunity,

Been cooled in the moment of peril?

If you, Romans, had triumphed without fighting!

 

BRUTUS.

I wish it at least; I do not hope for it.

 

CASSIUS.

Agrippa comes to us.

 

PORCIA.

Here he is; I will leave you.

I must admit, I'm really not sure why Fulvia is in this. The only Fulvia I know of is Antony's wife, but even assuming it to be a different Fulvia, she never says a word in the whole play.
