A few weeks later, from when we were at Sardis, we arrived in Philippi. We met with Antony and Octavius, for which we egged each other on, in a few words. We left each other, construing our plans. Cassius and I will be going our separate ways to meet the enemys different armies. I will be attacking Octavius, while Cassius will be attacking Antony.

| This is a small map of which our plans are shown. |
Cassius and I have left each other with smiles, so if one or both of us shall die today, we will have had left each other with smiles and good ill. But I have not told him, if we lose, I will be taking my own life.
If this happens, Caesar, "I kill'd not thee with half so good a will."
