[CASSIUS.] Coming from Sardis, on our former
ensign
Two mighty eagles fell, and there they perched,
Gorging and feeding from our soldiers’ hands;
Who to Philippi here consorted us.
This morning are they fled away and gone,
And in their steads do ravens, crows, and kites
Fly o’er our heads and downward look on us,
As we were sickly prey. Their shadows seem
A canopy most fatal, under which
Our army lies ready to give up the ghost.

—The Tragedy of Julius Caesar,
William Shakespeare
