CALPURNIA. Here, my lord.
CAESAR. Stand you directly in Antonio's way,
When he doth run his course. Antonio!

To touch Calpurnia, for our elders say
The barren, touched in this holy chase,
Shake off their sterile curse.

When Caesar says "Do this," it is perform'd.
CAESAR. Set on, and leave no ceremony out. Flourish.
