A good rebuke, Which might have well becomed the best of men, To count it slackness. Canidius, we Will fight with him at sea.Cleo. By sea ! What else ? Canid. Why will my lord do so ?Ant. For that he dares us to t.Enob. So hath my lord dared him to single fight.Canid.

But if we fail,We then can do t at land. Shakespeare—Antony and Cleopatra.
