Lines 49-55

Octavius performs a speech from Act 5, Scene 1 of myShakespeare's Julius Caesar. 

Octavius

Come, come, the cause. If arguing make us sweat,
The proof of it will turn to redder drops.
Look, I draw a sword against conspirators.
When think you that the sword goes up again?
Never, till Caesar's three-and-thirty wounds
Be well avenged, or till another Caesar
Have added slaughter to the sword of traitors.
