The Queen was deeply agitated, and desired before the interview to pay a visit to her tomb. Iras offered to accompany her, and as Cleopatra intended to remain an hour or longer, Charmian thought it a favourable opportunity to see Barine and her boy. Dion's wife had been informed of her friend's wish, and Anukis, who was to take her to Lochias, did not wait long for the mother and child.

"All the Pierides," said the praetor, "are represented at Lochias. We saw eight of them, but the ninth, that patroness of the arts, who protects the stargazer, the lofty Urania, has at present, in place of a head allow me to leave it to you to guess divine Sabina?" "Well what?" "A wisp of straw." "Alas," sighed the Empress. "What do you say, Florus?

When the time comes, the accused must appear before the judges; therefore she must remain at Lochias and in custody. It is my will that no harm befalls her. You are her friend, Charmian. I will place her in your charge.

Yet even the exquisite purplish blue of the banner waving above the palace on the peninsula of Lochias, now occupied by Cleopatra's children, was surpassed by the hue of the sea, whose deep azure near the shore merged far away into bands of lighter and darker blue, blending with dull or whitish green.

"I am the daughter of Keraunus, the steward of the palace, and we have rooms there, at Lochias," Selene answered, with rapid decision, but in a low whisper, so that the physician, who just then opened the room door, might not hear her. "No one, and least of all, my father, must know that I work here."

Brothers and sisters are rarely talkative when they are together. As Charmian went to Lochias with Archibius, it was difficult for her to find words, the events of the past few hours had agitated her so deeply. Archibius, too, could not succeed in turning his thoughts in any other direction, though important and far more momentous things claimed his attention.

"Then you bring these flowers from Lochias?" "She went out, and she could not get back home again, she is now lying in the house of a stranger." "Where?" "That must be quite indifferent to you " "By no means, quite the contrary. I beg you to tell me the whole truth." "Eternal gods! what can you care about the poor sick creature?" "Nothing whatever; but I must know whither you are riding."

Farewell, till we meet again, fair Balbilla," and the praetor hurried off. Outside the Caesareum he got into his chariot and set out for Lochias.

"Probably of the complaisant model who ventures into Lochias at night?" "No; a lady of rank will sit to me." "An Alexandrian?" "Oh, no. A beauty in the train of the Empress." "What is her name? I know all the Roman ladies." "Balbilla." "Balbilla? There are many of that name. What is she like, the lady you mean?" asked Hadrian, with a cunning glance of amusement.

You no doubt wished to see the progress of the fire from a spot near it, and in fact the colors down there are magnificent. I have not time to escort you back to the Caesareum; but follow me. You will be safe in the harbor-guard's stone house, and from the roof you can command a view of Lochias and the whole peninsula.
