My Lords, own to the Fort to wait upon the Consuls, he Roman Consuls both, Titus Domitius, Dio. Sueton. and Caius S ssius are from Room arrived ere at Pelusium, what the matter is S not yet known. How canst thou jest at this This woeful passion, which alone's enough To melt his foes and Caesar into tears. None talks with him but Aristocrats, Who following his own way, and suiting just With his conceit thinks to reclaim him so. It cannot so Canidius ; Perchance to hear extremity of all Will cure his fit; it cannot make him worse. For death it self were better and more noble. Do, good Canidius. This sinks into him. How formless is the form of man the soul, How various still how different from it self? How falsely called Queen of this little world? When she's a slave, and subject not alone Unto the bodies temperature, but all The storms of Fortune. Where hast thou lived thou shouldst not know the occa sion? The fits and changes of Antonius Are theam enough: how strange a loving soul Is the late hater of mankind become! He cannot choose but see it. He must be told it, if he will not see Upon my life there is some plot of treason Which yet may be discovered. My Lord, take fairer Hope's. Most royal Caesar -Like dissimulation. It's our desire; our lives and Fortune's ever Shall do great Caesar true and faithful service As they before did to Antonius.
Plot summary
Plot — Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt
PLOT Though he has a wife in Rome, Antonius is devoted to Cleopatra. Provocatively, he bestows on her three eastern Provinces which were under Roman rule. News arrives from Rome that all but one of his rivals have been eclipsed; the remaining politician, Caesar, is too proud to share power and has engrossed the others' confiscated estates to himself rather than dividing them with Antonius. Antonius abandons hedonism to prepare for war, and Cleopatra forces him to allow her to accompany him. Portents appear in Egypt and Rome, including a comet. During the decisive battle, Cleopatra flees and Antonius follows her, leaving his navy to be massacred; his soldiers transfer their allegiance to Caesar. Antonius goes to live in misanthropic seclusion, madly taking on the name and identity of Timon of Athens. Cleopatra offers Caesar gold to keep herself and her dynasty on the Egyptian throne. Caesar wants the gold, but also wants to display her at his triumph; but, knowing that she will never allow herself to be humiliated, he decides on a ruse. Meanwhile, Cleopatra investigates suicide methods, only to be told that there is no chemical poison which is both fast-acting and painless: her only option is the bite of an asp. She tests the claim on two condemned prisoners, administering the asp to one; when it does indeed appear to be a tranquil death, the other man is spared. Antonius is brought back to his senses by the news of his army's defection, and prepares to return to Cleopatra. While she is expecting his arrival, Thyreus brings her a message from Caesar, who claims to be in love with her. She is minded to accept and give Caesar one of her towns, but Antonius' friends suspect a plot and Thyreus is imprisoned. She accuses Antonius of unreasonable jealousy and threatens suicide, so Thyreus is released and sent back to Caesar with her acceptance of his terms. Cleopatra realizes that she has played false on both sides: her arrangement with Caesar will cost her Antonius' love, but conversely she cannot trust Caesar. While Antonius goes into battle, she retires to her tomb. After Antonius is routed, she sends him false news of her death, and he reacts suicidally. Learning the truth too late, he has himself taken to the tomb so that he can die in Cleopatra's arms. She realizes Caesar's insincerity and resolves to kill herself with the asp. Caesar brings medical specialists, but they are too late to save her life. Caesar honours Antonius and Cleopatra in death, and…
