Commend me to my brother: soon at night
I'll send him certain word of my success.

Escalus

Thank you, good Pompey; and, in requital of your
prophecy, hark you: I advise you, let me not find
you before me again upon any complaint whatsoever;
no, not for dwelling where you do: if I do, Pompey,
I shall beat you to your tent, and prove a shrewd
Caesar to you; in plain dealing, Pompey, I shall
have you whipt: so, for this time, Pompey, fare you well.

I thank your worship for your good counsel:

but I shall follow it as the flesh and fortune shall

Whip me? No, no; let carman whip his jade:
The valiant heart is not whipt out of his trade.

Will greet us here anon, my gentle Varrius.
