SCENE XII.

Alexas enters.
Alexas.
Alas, my royal mistress!
Some mischief is on foot.—I met the emperor,
Striding, with furious pace, toward the port:
His face was as the brow of angry heaven,
When pests and blasting lightnings do impend,
And mortals fly to cover. I shrunk from him:
But, my ear caught the thunder of his voice,
Which, with a ban, that shook the continent,
Curs'd you, and us, and Egypt!

Cleo.
My heart misgives!—yet why I fear, I know not.
