William Shakespeare
Antony and Cleopatra Act 2 Scene 7
SCENE VII. On board POMPEY's galley, off Misenum.

Music plays. Enter two or three Servants with a banquet

FIRST SERVANT

ill-rooted already: the least wind i' the world

SECOND SERVANT
Lepidus is high-coloured.

FIRST SERVANT
They have made him drink alms-drink.

SECOND SERVANT

cries out 'No more;' reconciles them to his
entreaty, and himself to the drink.

FIRST SERVANT

his discretion.

SECOND SERVANT

fellowship: I had as lief have a reed that will do
me no service as a partisan I could not heave.
