Where's Caius Marcius?

The news is, sir, the Volsces are in arms.

They lie in view; but have not spoke as yet.

Within this mile and half.

The citizens of Corioli have issued,
1.6.13
And given to Lartius and to Marcius battle:
1.6.14
I saw our party to their trenches driven,
1.6.15
And then I came away.

Above an hour, my lord.

Spies of the Volsces
1.6.24
Held me in chase, that I was forced to wheel
1.6.25
Three or four miles about, else had I, sir,
1.6.26
Half an hour since brought my report.

You are sent for to the Capitol. 'Tis thought
2.1.278
That Marcius shall be consul:
2.1.279
I have seen the dumb men throng to see him and
2.1.280
The blind to bear him speak: matrons flung gloves,
2.1.281
Ladies and maids their scarfs and handkerchers,
2.1.282
Upon him as he pass'd: the nobles bended,
2.1.283
As to Jove's statue, and the commons made
2.1.284
A shower and thunder with their caps and shouts:
2.1.285
I never saw the like.

The nobles in great earnestness are going
4.6.74
All to the senate-house: some news is come
4.6.75
That turns their countenances.

Yes, worthy sir,
4.6.80
The slave's report is seconded; and more,
4.6.81
More fearful, is deliver'd.

It is spoke freely out of many mouths--
4.6.84
How probable I do not know--that Marcius,
4.6.85
Join'd with Aufidius, leads a power 'gainst Rome,
4.6.86
And vows revenge as spacious as between
4.6.87
The young'st and oldest thing.

Sir, if you'ld save your life, fly to your house:
5.4.36
The plebeians have got your fellow-tribune
5.4.37
And hale him up and down, all swearing, if
5.4.38
The Roman ladies bring not comfort home,
5.4.39
They'll give him death by inches.
