Full speech
Caesar's best wishes, royal Cleopatra, None but your fairest self can ratify. No power on earth can give what Caesar wants But you, great Queen. For let your Majesty Give credit to poor Thyreus though the meanest Of all the servants that attend on Caesar, Ther's none about him is more near in trust To whom he's pleased to impart his thoughts And secret wishes: nothing but your love Can crown his happiness. You are the Queen of Fortune, and still ho A lasting Sceptre over that fickle Goddess (Fickle to others, to you true and constant) Your radiant light lends that blind Goddess eyes And guides her to your service, making all Actions, nay losses steps to greater honour. The late defeat at Actium, which your error Perchance miscalls a lose, was Fortune's labour To make you greater, and remove your brightness Which was ill placed (as Diamonds coursly set) From old Antonius to young Caesar's love, A fitter sphere for those fair eyes to shine in. Mighty Queen, If my rude speech have erred, I humbly beg That you would please to think it zeal in me To do my master service, and such service As he esteems the best, to gain your love, I oft have herd him (let your Majesty Not be offended with that truth I utter) Ravished with fame of your perfections, And noble spirit; call Antonius happy, Whom fortune brought to Egypt, to behold That Queen, whom he so much desired to see. But when his ey beheld your portraiture Drawn by a skilful, and a faithful hand; He oft would say it was a likely seat To hold those Graces. Such perfections Were fit for none but Caesar's to admire. Though all in him were great, yet nothing greater Then his adopting so divine and heir. This Caesar, Madam, for your dearest love, Beside that power and greatness, which the world Both knows and fears, brings such a youth and beauty To plead for him, as in a mean estate Might move a Princess love: which that your eyes may better read, I here from him present His true, and most unflattered portrairure. His age, great Queen, is yet not thirty years. To do divinest Cleopatra service Is all poor Thyreus pride: in serving you I best discharge my duty to my master. I will attend your highness. Noblest of Queen's, you make Imperial Caesar As much a debtor to your courtesy As he's already captive to your beauty. To prison! Caesar would not have used your messenger So ill.
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…
