Cleopatra taking it grieuously, and also in great disdaine that Marcus Antonius should make triall so oft of her loue, vpon a time at a banquet and merrie meeting, whether it were to giue him occasion neuer to be distrust- full any more after, or for some other cause, she began to delight him verie voluptuously, after her old fashion that she vsed: namely, with diuers and sundrie garlands of flowers, whose leaues were all besprinckled with poy- son. Some of the which she wearing vpon her head, picked them out and brusing them a little, cast them into his cuppe or goblet, per- swading him to drinke it off. But whilest he was about to do it, she putting her hand to it, said thus, Oh my sweete heart Antonius, I surely am the woman, which if I could liue without thee, haue now a iust occasion to do that, which by your curious trials you seeme to feare. And hereby we may see what may be the audacitie, and impudent boldnes of a shamelesse woman.
