*<D {Enter the} Tribunes {and} Senatours {aloft: And then enter}
*Saturninus {and his followers at one dore, and} Bassianus {and}
{his followers, with Drums and Trumpets}.>
<S {Saturninus}.>
Noble {Patricians}, Patrons of my Right,
Defend the iustice of my cause with armes.
And Countrimen my louing followers,
Plead my successiue Title with your swords:
I am his first borne sonne, that was the last
That ware the Imperiall Diademe of Rome,
Then let my Fathers honours liue in me,
Nor wrong mine age with this indignitie,
<S {Bassianus}.>
Romaines, friends, followers, fauourers of my Right,
If euer {Bassianus Ceasars} sonne,
Were gratious in the eyes of Royall Rome,
Keepe then this passage to the Capitoll,
And suffer not dishonour to approch,
The Imperiall seate to vertue, consecrate
<P A3v>
To iustice, continence, and Nobillitie:
But let desert in pure election shine,
And Romaines fight for freedome in your choice.
