Lines 35-46

Brutus performs a speech from Act 3, Scene 2 of myShakespeare's Julius Caesar. 

Brutus

Then none have I offended. I have done no more to
Caesar than you shall do to Brutus. The question of his
death is enrolled in the Capitol; his glory not extenuated,
wherein he was worthy; nor his offenses enforced, for
which he suffered death.
[Enter Antony and others, with Caesar's body.]
Here comes his body, mourned by Mark Antony, who,
though he had no hand in his death, shall receive the
benefit of his dying, a place in the commonwealth, as
which of you shall not? With this I depart — that, as I slew
my best lover for the good of Rome, I have the same
dagger for myself, when it shall please my country to need
my death.
