that City Yet Herod did not continue long time in that mind although by the A means he had given him he had not satisfied his Kinsman's necessities For being in the City of Tyre in a certain company where he drank immoderately Agrippa esteemed it for an extream injury that Herod had upbraided him with his poverty and hit him in the teeth that he maintained him at his charge For which cause he withdrew himself to Flaccus Herod taunteth Agrippa with his Poverty who had been sometimes Consul at Rome and for the present was President of Syria with whom he had been very familiar at Rome Flaccus received him very kindly and had also done the like a good while before to Aristobulus Agrippa's Brother who were both at variance between themselves yet Agrippa retireth himself to Flaccus notwithstanding this Dissention between them Flaccus entertained them both with equal favour But Aristobulus remitted nothing of his hatred he bare his Brother and never rested till he had B drawn Flaccus into dislike with his Brother Aristobulus draweth Agrippa into Flaccus's disfavour upon this occasion The Inhabitants of Damasco contending with the Sidonians about their limits and being to debate their cause before Flaccus knowing what interest Agrippa had in him they besought him that he would further their Cause promising him a great Summ of money whereupon he addressed himself in what he could to further those of Damasco But Aristobulus who had an inkling of this conclusion and promise accused his Brother to Flaccus and after enquiry was made and he found guilty of the Fact Agrippa grew out of the Presidents favour and falling again into extream poverty he came to Ptolemais and having no way to subsist he resolved to go into Italy And seeing he wanted Money he commanded Marsyas his Free-man that by all means whatsoever he should seek to C take up Money upon Interest He spake unto Protus who was Agrippa's Mother's Freeman who by the Testament of his deceased Mistress was left unto Antonius's protection that upon his Master's Bill and Promise he would lend him some Money But he alledging that Agrippa before that time owed him money Agrippa by Marsyas's means borroweth money of Protus extorted from Marsyas a Bill of his hand for twenty thousand Attick Drachmes deducting out of that Summ two thousand and five hundred which Marsyas took for himself which he might the more easily do for that Agrippa could not otherwise chuse Having therefore received this money he went to Anthedon where getting Shipping he prepared himself for the journey But when Herennius Capito who was Treasurer of Jamnia understood of his being D there Agrippa whilst Herennius Capito extorteth money at his hands flieth to Alexandria by night he sent his Souldiers to him to exact three hundred thousand silver Drachmes at his hands for which he stood indebted to Caesar's Treasurer during his being at Rome by which means he was enforced to stay Whereupon he made a shew that he would obey their demand but as soon as it was night he caused the Cables of the Ship to be cut and cast off and sailed to Alexandria there he requested Alexander Alabarcha to lend him two hundred thousand Drachmes in Silver he protested that he would trust him with nothing Agrippa borroweth money at Alexandria But admiring Cypros his Wife 's constant love toward her Husband and her many other Virtues he upon her promise condescended to do him a kindness Whereupon in present money he payed him five Talents in Alexandria and promised to deliver him the rest of the money at Puteol fearing Agrippa's unthriftiness E Thus Cypros having furnished her Husband for his Journey into Italy returned her self and her Children into Judaea by Land Agrippa arriveth at Puteol and is admitted to Caesar's presence But Agrippa as soon as he arrived at Puteol wrote unto Tiberius Caesar who lived in Capreas signifying unto him that he came to do his duty beseeching him that he would grant him free and favourable access Tiberius with all expedition returned him a very kind answer assuring him that he would be very glad to see him safely arrived in Capreas In a word as soon as he was arrived Caesar expressed and made it known that his affection was answerable to his Letters and both embraced him and lodged him The next day Caesar received Letters from Herennius Capito who advertised him that Agrippa owed three hundred thousand Drachmes of Silver which he borrowed and payed not at the time prefixed F and that when the appointed time of payment was come he was fled out of the Countrey and by this occasion he had deprived him of the means to constrain him to make satisfaction When Caesar had read these Letters he was highly displeased and commanded those of his ●●mber that they should not admit Agrippa to his presence until such time as he had li●●●arged that debt Agrippa borroweth three hundred thousand drachmes of Antonia Germanicus's Claudius's Mother But he nothing daunted at Caesar's displeasure required Antonia Germanicus and Claudius's Mother who was afterwards Emperour to lend him the summ of three hundred thousand Drachmes to the end he might not lose Caesar's friendship Who remembring her Bernice Agrippa's Mother and with what familiarity they had conversed together and how Agrippa likewise had been brought up with Claudius her Son lent G him that money Caius commended to Agrippa's charge Whereupon he paying the debt without any contradiction enjoyed the Princes favour and was so reconciled to Caesar that he committed his Nephew to Agrippa's charge commanding him to attend him always whithersoever he went Being by this benefit bound and tied to Antonia he began to reverence her Nephew H Caius who was gracious in all mens eyes and honoured in memory of his Parents At that time by chance there was one Allius a Samaritan Caesar's Free-man of whom he borrowed ten hundred thousand Drachmes of Silver and payed Antonia her due and kept the rest Allius Caesars Free-man lendeth Agrippa money the more honourably to attend and wait on Caius By whom being entertained with most inward familiarity it happened one day that riding in the same Coach with him Agrippa wisht for they two were alone that Tiberius might shortly surrender the Kingdom and Empire unto Caius who was each way more worthy than he These words of his were overheard by the Coachman called Eutychus who was Agrippa's Free-man who for the time spoke not a word thereof But being afterwards accused for stealing Agrippa's garment as he indeed had done and brought I back again after he had fled away to Piso who was the Governour of the City he asked him why he fled Hedio Ruffinus chap. 13. who answered that he had certain secrets which he desired to reveal unto Caesar
