Caesar forgaue you the thirde parte of youre Tributes and forbadde that iniurie to be done to you hÃ©ereafter for he committed to you the gathering of the Tributes of youre Countrey people And our good Citizens call such a man as he was a Tyrant and you haue giuen them much money that were kyllers of the man that most deserued of you and that against vs â–ª that reuenged hys quarrell But forasmuch as Fortune fauouring the iust cause hath decrÃ©ed not as you woulde but as ryght was if you had continued in armes as their fellowes you had bin punishable but bycause we doe easily belÃ©eue that you did it by compulsion we forgiue you the greater punishment only we haue nÃ©ede of your money your land Cities to pay our armyes whiche be eyghte and twenty Legions which with their

Cities vnto them and as I myght say to bid Italy be packing But y you should not leaue your Cities Countrey houses your temples and religions and youre auncesters monuments we onely require your money and not all for y you could not beare but a meane part which when you heare I thinke you wil goe conteÌ„ted away As much as you gaue our enimies in two yeares whiche was ten yeares tribute so much wil we require sauing y it must be paid in one yeare bycause ne-nessitie so exacteth You may acknowledge thaÌ„kes confesse that you are not punished as you haue deserued Thus he spake to please the souldiors to whom they promised rewards at their mÃ©eting at Modena then they were xl legions so many of theÌ„ were coÌ„sumed He had not fully ended his tale wheÌ„ the Grecians sate vpoÌ„ the ground with many demonstratioÌ„s accusing the crueltie of Brutus Cassius shewing they wer rather worthy pardoÌ„ thaÌ„ punishment They would gladlye giue to their friends but they were bereft all of their enimies to whom they had giuen not only theyr monies but when that fayled their iewels and ornaments which they coyned of themselues At length with much ado they obtayned to paye nine yeares Tribute in two yeares As he went about the prouinces Lucius brother to Cassius and other fearing themselues when they hadde harde of his mercye shewed at Ephesus they came and submitted themselues to him and he pardoned them except such as were priuie to the conspiracie for to them he was inexorable He did comfort the cities that were grieuouslye oppressed and gaue priuilegies to the Lycians and exhorted the Xanthians â—etâ—store their Citie He gaue to the Rodians Andrus Tenus Naxus and Mindus which shortly after he toke from them bycause of their sharpe gouernement He graunted the Tarsentans and Laodicians libertie and made frÃ©e al the Citizens of Tarsus that had bin taken with priuiledge he receiued the Athenienses very gently gaue theÌ„ Tenus Aegiâ—â— Icon Câ—am Sciathus Peparetis Then going through Phrygia Mysia Gallogrecia Cappadocia Cilicia Caelâ—sâ—â—ia Palesâ—â—a Ituraea and other prouinces of Syria he put gret Tributs vpon theÌ„ He toke vp matters of controuersie of princes and Cittes euen as hee wold himself And wher the controuersie for Cappadocia was betwÃ©ene Sifinnâ— and Ariarathes he preserred Sâ—siâ—na for Glâ—phyâ—â—a his fayre mothers sake In Syria he deliuered the townes of Tirannes In Cilicia he accused Cleopatra bycause she did not helpe Caesar in his wars She did not so much excuse hir selfe as boaste that she had sent â—oure legions to Dolobella at the beginning of y war â–ª hauing prepared a Nauy was letted by tempestes and by the chaunce of Dolobella that was sâ—â—ner ouercome than the loked for and that notwithstanding Cassius twice threatning hyr she contemned him and Murcus also and with a riche Nauy sayled into the Ionian sea there beside other losses fel sicke Wherfore she returned no more to the sea after the victorie was ã€ˆâ€¦ã€‰ on Then Antonie being caughte in minde with the sight of hir hÃ©e began to loue hir like a yong man though he were fourty yÃ©eres of age his nature as it sÃ©emeth euer being pliant to that thing and before he hadde a minde to hir when he was a Captaine of horsemen at Alexandria vnder Gabinius Now leauing his woonted diligence hÃ©e did all things as Cleopatra woulde haue him without respecte of God or mannes lawe In so much as he sente Souldiours to kill Arsinoâ— hir sister that was fledde into the Temple of Diana crying for mercy and commaunded the Tyrians to deliuer Serapion Captaine of Cypres to Cleopatra being fledde for safetie to Tyrus Likewise he commaunded the Arcadians to doe with an other fugitiue bicause he toke vppon him the person of Ptolomeus Cleopatras brother being ouercome in Nilus of Caesar and neuer sÃ©ene after He also commaunded Megabysus a Prâ—sâ—e of Diana of Ephesus to bÃ©e deliuered bicause he receyued Arsinoe as a QuÃ©ene but when the Ephesians made sute to Cleopatra for him he let him goe so soone was he changed This affection was the beginning of his troubles and ende of his life When Cleopatra was gone home he sent his horsemen to spoyle the Palmirians a Cittie not farre from Euphrates a lighte offence beeing obiected to them for a fashion bicause dwelling in the confines of the Romanes and the Parthians they seemed to bee of doubtful
