Of the CXXXIII. booke.

MArcus Antonius was with his fleet overcome at Actium, and thereupon fled to Alexandria: where being by Caesar besieged, and in utter dispaire of recovering his former state, but mooved especially upon a false rumour that was spred, how Cleopatra was killed, hee slew himselfe. When Caesar was now master of Alexandria, Cleopatra likewise because she would not fal into the hands of the conquerour, willingly procured her owne death. Caesar upon his returne to the cittie of Rome, had the honour of three triumphs: the one over Illyricum, another for the victorie at Actium, & the third in regard of Cleopatra. Thus when he had finished all civill warres which had continued one & twentie yeeres, M. Lepidus, the sonne of Lepidus the Triumvir, conspired against Caesar: and whiles hee went about to make warre, was prevented and slaine.
