2108Caes. Let him appeare that's come from Anthony.

2109Know you him.

2110Dolla. Caesar, 'tis his Schoolemaster,

2111An argument that he is pluckt, when hither

2112He sends so poore a Pinnion of his Wing,

2113Which had superfluous Kings for Messengers,

2114Not many Moones gone by.

2116Caesar. Approach, and speake.

2117Amb. Such as I am, I come from Anthony:

2118I was of late as petty to his ends,

2119As is the Morne-dew on the Mertle leafe

2120To his grand Sea.

2121Caes. Bee't so, declare thine office.

2122Amb. Lord of his Fortunes he salutes thee, and

2123Requires to liue in Egypt, which not granted

2124He Lessons his Requests, and to thee sues

2125To let him breath betweene the Heauens and Earth

2126A priuate man in Athens: this for him.

2127Next, Cleopatra does confesse thy Greatnesse,

2128Submits her to thy might, and of thee craues

2129The Circle of the Ptolomies for her heyres,

2130Now hazarded to thy Grace.

2131Caes. For Anthony,

2132I haue no eares to his request. The Queene,

2133Of Audience, nor Desire shall faile, so shee

2134From Egypt driue her all-disgraced Friend,

2135Or take his life there. This if shee performe,

2136She shall not sue vnheard. So to them both.

2137Amb. Fortune pursue thee.

2138Caes. Bring him through the Bands:

2139To try thy Eloquence, now 'tis time, dispatch,

2140From Anthony winne Cleopatra, promise

2141And in our Name, what she requires, adde more

2142From thine inuention, offers. Women are not

2143In their best Fortunes strong; but want will periure

2144The ne're touch'd Vestall. Try thy cunning Thidias,

2145Make thine owne Edict for thy paines, which we

2146Will answer as a Law.

2147Thid. Caesar. I go.

2148Caesar. Obserue how Anthony becomes his flaw,

2149And what thou think'st his very action speakes

2150In euery power that mooues.

2151Thid. Caesar, I shall. exeunt.
