CAESAR. Calpurnia here, my wife, stays me at home.

She dreamt tonight she saw my statue,

Which like a fountain with an hundred spouts

Did run pure blood; and many lusty Romans

Came smiling and did bathe their hands in it.

And these does she apply for warnings and portents

Of evils imminent, and on her knee

Hath begged that I will stay at home today.

– The Tragedy of Julius Caesar,

William Shakespeare
