Scene IVAntium. Before Aufidius’s houseEnter Coriolanus in mean apparel, disguised and muffledCoriolanusA goodly city is this Antium. City, ‘Tis I that made thy widows: many an heir Of these fair edifices ‘fore my wars Have I heard groan and drop: then know me not, Lest that thy wives with spits and boys with stones In puny battle slay me.Enter a CitizenSave you, sir.CitizenAnd you.CoriolanusDirect me, if it be your will, Where great Aufidius lies: is he in Antium?CitizenHe is, and feasts the nobles of the state At his house this night.CoriolanusWhich is his house, beseech you?CitizenThis, here before you.CoriolanusThank you, sir: farewell.Exit CitizenO world, thy slippery turns! Friends now fast sworn, Whose double bosoms seem to wear one heart, Whose house, whose bed, whose meal, and exercise, Are still together, who twin, as ’twere, in love Unseparable, shall within this hour, On a dissension of a doit, break out To bitterest enmity: so, fellest foes, Whose passions and whose plots have broke their sleep, To take the one the other, by some chance, Some trick not worth an egg, shall grow dear friends And interjoin their issues. So with me: My birth-place hate I, and my love’s upon This enemy town. I’ll enter: if he slay me, He does fair justice; if he give me way, I’ll do his country service.Exit
