Enter, from one side, Lucius, Iachimo, and the Roman Army: from the other side, the British Army; Posthumus following, like a poor soldier. They march over and go out. Then enter again, in skirmish, Iachimo and Posthumus; he vanquisheth and disarmeth Iachimo, and then leaves him
ExitThe battle continues; the Britons fly; Cymbeline is taken: then enter, to his rescue, Belarius, Guiderius, and Arviragus
| Belarius | Stand, stand! We have the advantage of the ground; | ||
| The lane is guarded: nothing routs us but | |||
| The villany of our fears. |
| Guiderius|
Arviragus| |
|
Re-enter Posthumus, and seconds the Britons: they rescue Cymbeline, and exeunt. Then re-enter Lucius, and Iachimo, with Imogen
| Caius Lucius | Away, boy, from the troops, and save thyself; | ||
| For friends kill friends, and the disorder's such | 15 | ||
| As war were hoodwink'd. |
| Iachimo |
|
| Caius Lucius | It is a day turn'd strangely: or betimes | ||
| Let's reinforce, or fly. |
Exeunt
