ANTONIUS.
Nay, do not pity me ; I scorn the thought Of sympathy for snch fool's sufferings.
I would embrace a flame — ^I have it not.
Nor proof that it was mine, save this fell smart — Make me not hate thee by thy sympathy I SBXTUS.
What was her name ?
ANTONinS.
Her name !— I'll tell it not !
Never again shall that accursed word 8* Digitized byCjOOQlC 90 HERODIAS.
Escape its prison-house within these lips I — And yet — and yet — ^I think I'll tell it thee — It cankers in my heart — ^I'll spit i...t out, And cherish it no more — 'twas Livia.
SBXTUS.
And thou — ^where didst thou go ?
ANTONIUS.
To the far east, Where I had never been, where no one knew me; And there, with a new name and an old heart, I tried to throw away a blasted life, Which clings to me in mockery, like a phan- tom.
And haunts me always ; armies went and came.
But I remained, a spirit of destruction.
Unknown save by my deeds and the new name I'd chosen ; all companionless till thou.
With valor, gentleness, and sympathy.
