The third obseruation.

Cleopatra the Queene of Egypt, expelled her sonne La∣thurus from the kingdome, by reason of his tyrannicall regi∣ment, and made his brother Alexander king of Egypt in his place. Lathurus fled away into Cypres, & Alexander raigned not long, for he was so afraide of his mothers crueltie, that hee forsook the kingdom, and fled away. And so Cleopatra, for the greater part of the 18 yeres ascribed to Lathurus & Alexander had hir raigne alone. But at length Alexander her son stew hir, and possessed the kingdome againe. Yet this Alexander was expulsed by the Egyptians for his crueltie, and Lathurus a∣gaine restored, who raigned a fewe yeares, and then dyed. This must bee diligently obserued for the clearing of many difficulties, which otherwise will not easily be vnderstood, tou∣ching the yeeres and raignes of the kings.
