The residue of the charges if I may be so bold I will eyther of thée or by thy helpe borowe it of publike money and forthwith make sale of my priuate substance Whilest Caesar spake thus Antony was astonished at his courage and boldnesse farre beyond the opinioÌ„ of his yeares and being gréeued with his spéech made without reuerence of him specially for that he required the money he answered him sharply after this manner If Caesar togither with his inheritaÌ„ce and name O sonne had left thée also the state thou mightest well haue required an accompt of common things and I must haue aunswered but if the Romaines haue by oth decréed that no man shall receyue rule by inheritance nor no man be a successour to Kings whome they did expell whiche was chiefly obiected againste the father of the quellers affirming they killed him as a King and not as a Captayne I ought not to aunswere thée touching any of these publike causes and by the same reason I do deliuer thée of the gyuing of thankes whiche thou owest to me therefore for it was done not for thy sake but for the peoples yet one of the greatest actes that euer was done for Caesar and for thée for if I of mine owne boldnesse and hate to them had ouerpast the honors for the strikers as killers of a Tyrante Caesar had bin iudged a Tyrant to whome neyther glory nor honor nor establishmente of his actes had bin made neyther Testament sonne or substaÌ„ce had bin stayd nor his bodye bin thought worthy buriall no not as a priuate man for the law doth commaund the bodyes of Tyrants to be cast vnburied their memorie to be raced and

of bloudshed and as thou mayst know conspiring agaynste me and of the Senat that could euill beare thy fathers gouernement but I thought rather to offer my selfe to peril and trouble than to suffer

his fathers name He put to sale his whole substance by and by that came vnto him by inheritance coueting to winne the people by thys liberalitie bycause Antony appeared a manifest enimie vnto him The Senate intending to make enquirie by decrée for the publike treasure many of them were afrayde of yong Caesar for the beneuolence of his father had with the Souldyers and the people and for the present largeâ—â—e in alluring of them by consuming of his substance which was verye greate many thinkyng that he woulde not liue in the rate of a priuate man and chieflie for that Antony woulde agrée with him bycause he was yong famous and rich and would still vsurp Caesars former dominion Some were ioyfull of these things that these men shoulde be at variance and by the inquisition of the moneys Caesars ryches should wast and they haue abundance of the common treasure bycause muche of the publike store would be found among Caesars goodes Manye of them called Caesar into the lawe for their lands euery one clayming his owne and for that muche was common by reason of condemned banished and attaynted men These controuersies they brought before Antony or before Dolabella the other Consul If any matter were heard before other Judges â–ª Caesar had euer the worst bycause of Antonyes friendship albeit he shewed by record what his father had purchased that al his acts were ratifyed by the last decrée of the Senate Many other actions of iniurie were put vp againste him extraordinarily and they grew infinit in so much as Pedius and Pinarius to whom Caesar had giuen a portion of land

the next day â–ª whiche being come the Consuls called the people to an assembly and repeated the opinions Then Cicero did speake very much in the prayse of forgetting of iniuries of the which they reioiced and called Brutus and Cassius from the Temple They desired pledges to whom Lepidus Antonies sonnes were sente When Brutus Cassius were séene there was such a noyse as the Consuls that would haue sayde somwhat could not be suffered but wer first required to shake hands and be at one which they dyd And the Consuls mindes were troubled with feare or enuye that these men and their friends should preuayle in that common cause Then was Casars testament with the writings for the dispositioÌ„ of his goods brought forth which the people commaunded to be red There was Octauius his nephew by

marking how they were affected did not let it slippe but toke vpon him to make Caesars â—nneral sermon as Consul of a Consul friend of a friend knifman of a kinsman for Antony was partly his kinsman

for the loue of hys vertue giuen him by decrée aswell the Senate as the people I thinke your voice and not Antonies oughte to expresse it This he vttered with sad and heauy cheare and wyth a framed voice declared euerything chiefly vpon the decrée whereby he was made a God holy inuiolate father of the country benefactor and gouernor and suche a one as neuer in al things they entituled other man to y like At euery of these words Antonie directed his countenance hands to Caesars body and with vehemencie of words opened the fact At euery title he gaue an addition with briefe speach mixte with pitie and indignation And when the decrée named him father of the Country then he saide This is the testimony of our duety And at these wordes holy inuiolate and vntouched and the refuge of all other he said None other made refuge of hym But he this holy and vntouched is kylled not takyng honoure by violences whiche he neuer desired and then be we verye thrall that bestowe them on the vnworthy neuer suing for them But you doe purge your selues O Citizens of this vnkindnesse in y you nowe do vse suche honoure towarde hym being dead Then rehearsing the othe that all shoulde kéepe Caesar and Caesars body and if any one wente about to betraye hym that they were accursed that would not defende him at this he extolled hys voice and helde vp his handes to the Capitoll saying O Iupiter Countries defendour and you other Gods I am ready to reuenge as I sware and made execration and when it séemes good to my companions to allowe the decrées I desire them to aide me At these plaine spéeches spoken agaynst the Senate an vprâ—are being made Antony waxed colde and recanted hys wordes It séemeth O Citizens saide hée that the things done haue not bin the worke of men â–ª but of Gods and that we ought to haue more consideration of the present than of the past bycause the thyngs to come â–ª maye bring vs to greater danger than these we haue if we shall returne to oure olde and waste the reste of the noble men that be in the Cittie Therfore let vs send thys holy one to the number of the blessed and sing to him his due hymne and mourning verse When
messengers to Decimus to kepe his prouince strongly and to gather other army and money that he might resiste Antony So muche were they troubled and in anger against Antony And he contrary to the Senats minde entending to aske it of the people by lawe as Caesar once obtayned it before and as Dolabella had Syria now of late And to afraâ— y Senate he commaunded his brother Caius to transport the army of Macedonia by the Ionian Sea to Brunduse and there to doe what Antony should require Nowe was there playes to be â—hewed by â—â—itonius the ouersâ—â—r of victuals At the whiche Caesar hadde prepared a crowne and a chayre of golde for his father as in al shewes they had ordeyned so to honour him Câ—iâ—â—â—â—s sayde he woulde not admitte Caesar to be honored in the charges y be should make Wherefore Octaâ—â—iâ—n brought him before Antony the Consul Antony sayd he would put it to the Senate Whereat Octauian being offended Doe so quoth he and I will set the Chaire till thou haâ—â—e made the decree Antony was angry and forbad hym He forbadde it also in other playes after to be made and that was somewhat vnreasonable for Octauius hymselfe did exhibit it being instituted of hys father to Venus his parent to whome in the common place hee builded a Temple wyth a Couâ—te Of thys did manifeste hate grewe agaynste Antony of all men as thought he did not rather â—â—â—â— Octauius Caesar now thâ—n contemne the former vnthankfully Young Caesar with a muâ—â—â—tude as a guarde wente among the people and such as had bin benefited by hys father or serued hym in the wars â—â—uâ—ouslye hée besoughte them that they woulde not suffer hym thus to be so many waies despised but both reuenge Caesar their chiefetayne and benefactour so dishonoured of Antony and desenâ—e themselues who should haue none assurance vnlesse the things that he had decréed were established He went vp to euery highe place of the Citie and cried vpon Antony Be not angry with Caesar for me nor dishonor him that hath moste honoured thée O Antony and was moste affectionated to thée do me what â—nâ—ury thou wilt but saue his substaunce from spoile till the Citizens haue their parte all the reste take vnto thée It shal be sufficient for me though I be poore to be successor to hys glorye so thou wilte suffer the people â—o haue their portion After these wordes there was euident and continuall exclamation againste Antony and although he sharpelye threatned Octauius and that hys threats were openly known yet did they the more sâ—irre at it Wherfore the chiefe of the Capitains that serued in Antonies guard in great estunation wyth hym and had bin before with Caesar desired him he woulde leaue his dispight as well for their cause as for his own hauing serued vnder Caesar and receyued so many good turnes of him Which things Antony consideryng and confessing them to be true and halfe ashamed they shoulde be layde vpon hym and nowe shoulde haue néede of Octauians helpe for the prouince of France he beganne at lengthe to bée quiet and to shewe that some thyngs were doone againste hys wyll But bycause the young manne was so hawtie at those yeares hée dydde reuoke certaine thynges for that he hadde no regarde nor reuerence to the Capitaines and olde officers yet for theyr sakes he woulde reframe hys anger and returne to his olde conditions if hée also woulde leaue hys insolent behauiour The Captaines being gladde of this brought them togither when they had declared their griefs they set them at one Now was the law called vppon for France the Senate being against it and entending to prohibite it if Antony woulde propounde it to them and if hée didde not but require it of the people they woulde set the Tribunes to be againsteit and some there were that woulde haue it frée from al Lieutenants ouer that nation so muche afraide were they of it Antony did obiect vnto them that they would truste Decimus with it that was one of Caesars killers and distruste hym that did not kill hym that wanne that prouince and made it fall to his knées casting forth openly against them al as though they had bin desirous of that was doone to Caesar The courte daye being come the Senate willed the assembly of the companyes to be gathered and in the night they sette vppe Tentes in the common place and called a bande of Souldioures to desende them from all happes The people being offended laboured for Antony by the helpe of Octauiâ— that sate among the Tentes who entreated for hym for hée was very much afraid least Decimus shoulde be Gouernoure of a Prouince of suche importaunce and an armye so greate béeyng one that hadde kylled hys father and for thys cause hée beganne to fauoure Antonie wyth whome he was reconciled trusting to gette some good at hys hande The Tribunes being corrupted of Antony and keping silence the lawe tooke place and the armye being nowe at the sea was for reasonable consideration assigned to Antonie One of the Tribunes being dead Octauius much fauoured Flaminius against the next election and bycause the people thought himselfe woulde haue the office but refused to aske it bycause of his yong yeares they determined neuerthelesse at the election to make him Tribune The Senate had enuy at his encrease were afraide if he were Tribune he would accuse his fathers killers to the people And Antonie not regarding to breake friendship with Octauius whither it were to please the Senate and to quiet their minds for the late lawe made for hys Prouince or for their sakes that shoulde go to inhabite as Consull hée decréed that Caesar shoulde deale with no man but lawfullye otherwise he woulde further by al means his auctoritie against hym Thys declaration beyng vnpleasaunte to Caesar and contumelious bothe to hym and the people they were angrye and entended to make stirre at the election and to affraye Antonie and by the helpe of the other Tribunes to reuoke the decrée Octauius Casar as one euidently deceyued sente manye to the Citties that hys father made for to inhabite to shew them how hée was vsed and to knowe their minds therin He sent some also as cariers of victual into Antonies campe to mingle among them chiefelye to deale wyth the boldest of them and among the reste to scatter libells and thus hée dydde The Capitaines and chiefe men with Antony finding time conuenient saide thus vnto him Wée O Antonie that wyth thée haue serued Caesar and gaue to hym chiefe aucthoritie and till this daye haue remayned as assured seruauntes of it haue knowne that hys killers and the Senate fauouring them didde as muche hate and séeke to dispatch vs But when the people did disturbe them we were encouraged agayne bycause wée sawe that Caesar was not forgotten lacked no friendes nor destitute of fauoure yet did wee put
of Caesars inheritaunce vnto hym Then he came into the Cittie as Consul and sacrifised And there appeared to him twelue Gripes as did to Romulus when he builded the Cittie The sacrifices being ended hée gaue himselfe in adoption to his father according to the lawe Curiate that is â–ª to be confirmed in adoption by the people For the Romaines call Curias companies or wardes of the people deuided as the Grecians do call Phratriae fellowshippes and Fraterâ—iâ—ies This vse among the Romaines was most effectuall in the lawe for them that be without fathers and they may as well as Legitimate children commaunde the kinsefolke and frée made men of them that doe adopte them And it was one of Caius Caesars glories that he had manye riche frée made men and chiefly for this cause peraduenture thys Caesar in his first adoption by testament had néede of this also He dissolued by a newe lawe that Dolobella shoulde not be iudged a rebell and that the lawe mighte procéede for Caesars killing wherefore accusations were written agaynste them by Caesars friends to them as strikers to the other as priuie only for thys was obiected againste some of them and to some bycause they woulde not be seene when Caesar was kylled And to all these a day certayne was assigned by Proclamation when they shoulde appeare to make their annswere all the whiche fayling at the day Caesar himselfe markyng the iudgementes none was parâ—â—â—ed of the faulte but one noble man who then had no hurte but shortly after was condemned to deathe wyth the other And at thys tyme Q. Gallius brother to Marius Gallius Antonyes friende béeyng a Pretor in the Citie dyd desire of Caesar the Lieutenantshippe of Libya whyche when he hadde obteyned he wroughte wyles agaynste Caesar The other Pretors depriued him of hys office and the people and the Senate condemned him to deathe Caesar commaunded hym to goe to hys brother that was wyth Antony and when he had taken Shyppe to goe he was neuer séene after When Caesar had done these greate things he enclined to pacification with Antony When he had hearde that Brutus â–ª hadde twenty LegioÌ„s against that which he would haue Antonyes help he wente out of the Citie towarde the Ionian Sea and makyng small iourneys be tarried to sée what the Senate would do Pedius when Caesar was gone perswaded that before grudge should growe to extremitie they woulde agrée Antony and Lepidus And although they perceyued that this agréement was not for theyr sake nor for their Countrey but onely to helpe Caesar agaynste Brutus and Cassius yet did they by necessitie determine it and reuoked the sharp decrées made against Antonie and Lepidus and all the Souldioures vnder them and to sende them other more fauourable for the whyche Caesar wrote his letters of congratulation vnto them and promised to helpe Antonie againste Decimus if néede were The Senate vsed lyke friendly manner reward him and gaue him their harty thaÌ„kes and Antonie wrote that he would plague Decimus for Caesar and Plâ—nâ—â—â— for himselfe and ioyne with Caesar Thus they wrote one to another Whilest Antonie pursued Decimus Asinius Pollio came vnto him with two Legions and practised to haue him pacifyed wyth Plancus and Plancus with thrée Legions agréed with Antony in so muche as nowe Antony hadde a most myghtie power Decimus hadde tenne Legions whereof foure moste warlike being féebled with hunger were yet vexed with sickenesse Of newe taken there was syxe Legions but vnexperte and fearefull Wherefore Decimus doubting to fyghte determined to flée to Brutus into Macedonia and not to passe by the Mountaynes but by Rauenna and Aquileia And bycause Caesar was comming that waye hée tooke a longer and an harder iourney to passe by Rene and goe to the wilde places of barbarous people where the newe Souldioures oppressed with wante and heate forsooke hym and wente to Caesar and after them the foure Legions of older Souldioures wente to Antony Then to the other multitude the Frenche Horsemen men béeyng the gard of hys person only except he gaue leaue if they woulde to goe euery man to hys owne and gaue them such golde as he hadde so as when he came to the Rene he had but thrée hundred where bycause the passage was hard they all forsooke hym saue a fewe whyche fewe also shortly dyd leaue hym and wyth tenne onely changing hys garmente lyke a French man whose language he coulde speake he wente forthe as one of that nation not with haâ—ty iourneys but easlie to Aquileia thynking with so fewe he myghte wel escape but béeyng taken of Théeues and bounde he asked what Prince was Lorde of that parte they sayde Camillus He muche estéemyng the name of Camillus desired he myght be broughte to hym who when he sawe hym in apparance spake fayre to hym and rebuked the takers that without regard hadde so euill entreated so noble a man but priuily he sent vnto Antony and Antony moued with the mutation coulde not abyde to sée him but willed Camillus to kyll hym and sende hym hys head whyche when he sawe he commaunded it to be buryed Thys ende hadde Decimus a Captayne of Caesars Horsemen â—na by hym made Ruler of olde France and for the yeare to come elected Consull and Gouernoure of the other Fraunce and was the seconde of the kyllers that nexte Trebonius was punished a yeare and a halfe after Caesars deathe And this verye

without any warre hauing no matter againste Antiochus the pittifull being present and suing for his fathers Kingdome but bycause he thought that it being taken from Tigranes who had put out Antiochus it might wel ve iudged to the people â—â— Rome Whiles he was aboute these matters Ambasâ—adors came vnto him from Phraates and Tigranes that were at warre They that came from Tigranes desired helpe as of their fryende They that came from Phraates desired to be receyued into amitie with the Romaines And Pompey not minding to make war vppon the Parthians without the decrae of the Senate sent arbitrers to reconcile them And thus he did Mithridates had nowe gone about Pontus and hauing taken Pâ—â—ticupâ—on that is the chiefe cittie of Marchandise in Europâ— at the entrie of Pontus he killed hys sonne Sâ—phares at Pâ—â—â— for hys mothers faulte whiche was this Mithridates had a castle in the whiche were hidde vnder the grounde in brasen vessels bounde with yron muche treasure secretely Stratonice one of Mithridates wiues or women whyche had the gouernement and kéeping of this Castel whiles Mithridates went about Pontus deliuered the Castle to Pompey and reuealed the treasure that was vnknowne Onely wyth this condition that if Pompey tooke hir sonne Sâ—phares â—â— should saue him He hauing the money promised to saue hir sonne and gaue hir leaue to carie awaye hir owne things When Mithridates knew what was done he killed Siphâ—res at the narrowe sea and threw hys bâ—â—ye vnburyed hys mother sâ—yng it on the other shoare Thâ—s he killed the childe to be reuenged of the mother He sent Ambassadors to Pompey being in Syria not hearyng whither he were aliue or dead that hee might enioy his fathers kingdom â–ª and pay Tribute for it to the Romaines Pompey bad hâ—â— come and speake for himselfe as Tigranes had done That he saide he woulde neuer doe being Mithridates but hâ— woulde sende some of his children and friendes Thus he sayd and withall gathered an army togither of frée and bond bringing much armour shot and munition sparing no mans wodde nor labouring Oxe to make strings He â—ette taxes vpon euery man though he were but of small substance the collectors whereof did much spight which he knew not of And being sick in his face of a bile he was healed of y Eunuchs and only senâ— of theÌ„ When he was whole and his army gathered there was thréescore choyce â–ª bandes with sixe hundred in a company and there was another great multitude and shippes and places which his Captaynes had got whilest he was sicke He sent a part of his army to Phanagorea whiche was another mart towne at the mouth that he mighte haue his entries on both sides Pompey being yet in Syria Castor of Phanagorea bâ—yng iniured of Triphon an Eunuch of the Kings he killed Triphon as he entred and called the people to libertie and they bycause the Castell was holden of Artaphernes and other sonnes of the Kings did bring woodde and burned the tower by the whyche feare Artaphernes Darius and Xerxes Ozethres and Eupatra Mithridates children gaue themselues to be taken Artaphernes was about fortie yeares olde the other were faire yong men There was another daughter of Mithridates called Cleopatra who tarried still whome the father louing for hir noble heart sent diuers Foystes and toke hir away Other Castels there about lately taken of Mithridates following the bâ—ldnesse of the Phanagoreans reuolted from Mithridates Xerronesus Theâ—dosia Nymphâ—on and all other that were fitte for the warre aboute Pontus He séeing these many reuoltings and hauing his army in suspition not faithfull being compelled to serue of necessitie and for the great tributes and the infidelitie of armies always toward the Generalles that be in miserie he sent his daughters by his Eunuchs to be married to the princes of Scythia requyring an army to be sente him with spéede sending fiue hundreth Souldyoures with them They being not very farre off Mithridates killed the Eunuchs bycause they were euer iniured of the Eunuchs that might do most with Mithridates and led the maydes â—o Pompey Mithridates being spoyled of so many childreÌ„ Castles and of his whole kingdome and not fitte nowe for to make battell nor loking for anye helpe of the Scythians yet not conceyuing any small matter as one that was in calamitie but sent to the Frenchmen whome he hadde made friends long before intending to go to them and inuade Italy with them thynking many of Italy were wéery of the Romanes and hearing that Anniball â–ª began the warre in Spayne and was most fearefull to the Romanes He knew that of late almost all Italy rebelled from Rome and kepte a long warre with them and that Spartaâ—â—â— â— swordplayer was stirred vp of them a man of no regard With this opinion he marched toward France This most bold enterprise the army disappoynted being not content with so great a boldnesse nor so long a iourney to be ledde into a strange countrey against men whom they could not ouercome in their owne countrey thinking Mithridates to be in despaire of all things and would in labour and like a king end his life rather than in rest Yet a while they abode and were quiet for he was no smal king and not to be contemned euen in aduersitie They standing thus Pharnaces that was most déere to him of al his sonnes whome he had many times declared to be the successour of his kingdome eyther for feare of his kingdome by this army being yet like
