1:02:02
I have not strength
to pluck thee to the brink!
1:02:05
Aaah!
1:02:11
Along with me.
1:02:13
I'll see what hole is here,
1:02:16
and what he is that now
is leapt into it.
1:02:19
Say!
1:02:22
Who art thou that lately didst descend
1:02:25
into this gaping hollow
of the earth?
1:02:28
The unhappy sons of old Andronicus...
1:02:30
brought hither in a most unlucky hour
1:02:33
to find thy brother Bassianus dead!
1:02:35
My brother dead?
1:02:37
I know thou dost but jest.
1:02:39
He and his lady
both are at the lodge.
1:02:43
'Tis not an hour
since I left him there.
1:02:46
Where is my lord the king?
1:02:50
Here, Tamora...
1:02:52
though grieved with killing grief.
1:02:54
And where is thy brother Bassianus?
1:02:56
Now to the bottom dost
thou search my wound.
1:02:58
Poor Bassianus here lies murdered.
1:03:01
Oh, then all too late
I bring this fatal writ.
1:03:04
"And if we miss
to meet him handsomely--
1:03:06
sweet huntsman Bassianus 'tis we mean--
1:03:09
do thou so much as dig
the grave for him.
1:03:12
Thou know'st our meaning.
1:03:14
Look for thy reward...
1:03:15
among the nettles at the elder tree
1:03:18
which overshades
the mouth of that same pit
1:03:20
where we decreed to bury Bassianus.
1:03:22
Do this and purchase us
thy lasting friends."
1:03:24
O Tamora! Was ever heard the like?
1:03:26
This is the pit
and this the elder tree.
1:03:28
Look, sirs,
if you can find the huntsman out
1:03:31
that should have murdered
Bassianus here.
1:03:32
My gracious lord...
1:03:33
here is the bag of gold.
1:03:39
Two of thy whelps,
1:03:41
fell curs of bloody kind,
1:03:42
have here bereft
my brother of his life!
1:03:47
Sirs, drag them from the pit
unto the prison.
1:03:49
There let them bide
until we have devised
1:03:52
some never-heard-of
torturing pain for them.
1:03:55
High Emperor,
1:03:56
upon my feeble knee I beg this boon
