CLEOPATRA TO ANTHONY.
Anthony having lost most of his Men and Arms, is like to be overcome by Caesar: Ventidius pro∣mises his Parthian Army, consisting of Twelve Legions. The Souldiers refuse to fight, because, they say, they only fight for Cleopatra; who was the Cause of Anthony's losing so many Battles. Anthony, drawn by the Importunity of Ventidi∣us, and the Necessity of repairing his Honour on One side; and obliged to stay by the Charms and Soothing of Cleopatra on the Other, is doubt∣ful whether he shall submit to Love or Honour: Resolves, at last, to regain his former Trophies; and gives out, he is going to fight Caesar. Cleo∣patra hearing this ill News, sends him the follow∣ing Letter.
