e and her government, when they heard of the arrival of Antony and Ptolem=
y at Pelusium, of the fall of that city, and of the approach of Gabinius =
with an overwhelming force of Roman soldiers, were struck with dismay. Ar=
chelaus, the husband of Berenice, had been, in former years, a personal f=
riend of Antony's. Antony considered, in fact, that they were friends sti=
ll, though required by what the historian calls their duty to fight each =
other for the possession of the kingdom. The government of Berenice raise=
d an army. Archelaus took command of it, and advanced to meet the enemy. =
In the mean time, Gabinius arrived with the main body of the Roman troops=
, and commenced his march, in conjunction with Antony, toward the capital=
. As they were obliged to make a circuit to the southward, in order to av=
oid the inlets and lagoons which, on the northern coast of Egypt, penetra=
te for some distance into the land, their course led them through the hea=
rt of the Delta. Many battles were fought, the Romans every where gaining=
the victory. The Egyptian soldiers were, in fact, discontented and mutin=
ous, perhaps, in part, because they considered the government on the side=
of which they were compelled to engage as, after all a usurpation. At le=
ngth a great final battle was fought, which settled the controversy. Arch=
elaus was slain upon the field, and Berenice was taken prisoner; their go=
vernment was wholly overthrown, and the way was opened for the march of t=
he Roman armies to Alexandria." /></td></tr>

the morning of the battle, when the ships were drawn up in array, Cleopat=
ra held the command of a division of fifty or sixty Egyptian vessels, whi=
ch were all completely manned, and well equipped with masts and sails. Sh=
e took good care to have every thing in perfect order for flight, in case=
flight should prove to be necessary. With these ships she took a station=
in reserve, and for a time remained there a quiet witness of the battle.=
The ships of Octavius advanced to the attack of those of Antony, and the=
men fought from deck to deck with spears, boarding-pikes, flaming darts,=
and every other destructive missile which the military art had then devi=
sed. Antony's ships had to contend against great disadvantages. They were=
not only outnumbered by those of Octavius, but were far surpassed by the=
m in the efficiency with which they were manned and armed. Still, it was =
a very obstinate conflict. Cleopatra, however, did not wait to see how it=
was to be finally decided." /></a></td></tr>

itor which Antony had to contend with was a distinguished Roman general n=
amed Lepidus. Lepidus was an officer of the army, in very high command at=
the time of Caesar's death. He was present in the senate-chamber on the =
day of the assassination. He stole secretly away when he saw that the dee=
d was done, and repaired to the camp of the army without the city and imm=
ediately assumed the command of the forces. This gave him great power, an=
d in the course of the contests which subsequently ensued between Antony =
and Octavius, he took an active part, and held in some measure the balanc=
e between them. At length the contest was finally closed by a coalition o=
f the three rivals. Finding that they could not either of them gain a dec=
ided victory over the others, they combined together, and formed the cele=
brated _triumvirate_, which continued afterward for some time to wield th=
e supreme command in the Roman world. In forming this league of reconcili=
ation, the three rivals held their conference on an island situated in on=
e of the branches of the Po, in the north of Italy. They manifested extre=
me jealousy and suspicion of each other in coming to this interview. Two =
bridges were built leading to the island, one from each bank of the strea=
m. The army of Antony was drawn up upon one side of the river, and that o=
f Octavius upon the other. Lepidus went first to the island by one of the=
bridges. After examining the ground carefully, to make himself sure that=
it contained no ambuscade, he made a signal to the other generals, who t=
hen came over, each advancing by his own bridge, and accompanied by three=
hundred guards, who remained upon the bridge to secure a retreat for the=
ir masters in case of treachery. The conference lasted three days, at the=
expiration of which time the articles were all agreed upon and signed." =
