But tell the traitor, in the highest degree
He hath abus'd your powers.

Cor. Traitor!- -how now
Auf. Ay, traitor, Marcius.

Cor. Marcius!

Auf. Ay, Marcius, Caius Marcius; doft thou think, I'll grace thee with that robbery, thy ftol'n name Coriolanus in Corioli?

You Lords and Heads o' th' State, perfidiously
He has betray'd your bufinefs, and given up
For certain drops of falt, your city Rome,
I fay, your city, to his wife and mother ;
Breaking his oath and refolution, like
A twist of rotten filk; never admitting
Counsel o' th' war, but at his nurse's tears

Pardon me, lords, 'tis the first time that ever
I'm forc'd to fcold. Your judgments, my grave lords,
Muft give this Cur the Lie; and his own Notion,
Who wears my ftripes impreft upon him, that
Must bear my beating to his Grave, shall join
To thruft the lie unto him.

1 Lord. Peace both, and hear me fpeak.

Cor. Cut me to pieces, Volfcians, men and lads,
Stain all your edges in me. Boy! Falfe hound!
If you have writ your annals true, 'tis there,
That, like an eagle in a dove-coat, I
Flutter'd your Volfcians in Corioli.
Alone I did it. Boy!

Auf. Why, noble lords,

Will you be put in mind of his blind fortune, Which was your fhame, by this unholy braggart 'Fore your own eyes and ears?

All Con. Let him die for't.

All People. Tear him to pieces, do it prefently.

Shall have judicious Hearing. Stand, Aufidius,
And trouble not the peace.

All Con. Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill him.

Lords. Hold, hold, hold, hold.

Auf. My noble Mafters, hear me speak.

This orb o' th' earth.-] His fame overfpreads the world.
