[391]
Caesar replied to him thus: "Nay, thou shalt not only be in
safety, but thou shalt be a king; and that more firmly than thou wast before;
for thou art worthy to reign over a great many subjects, by reason of the
fastness of thy friendship; and do thou endeavor to be equally constant
in thy friendship to me, upon my good success, which is what I depend upon
from the generosity of thy disposition. However, Antony hath done well
in preferring Cleopatra to thee; for by this means we have gained thee
by her madness, and thus thou hast begun to be my friend before I began
to be thine; on which account Quintus Didius hath written to me that thou
sentest him assistance against the gladiators. I do therefore assure thee
that I will confirm the kingdom to thee by decree: I shall also endeavor
to do thee some further kindness hereafter, that thou mayst find no loss
in the want of Antony."
Flavius Josephus. The Works of Flavius Josephus. Translated by. William Whiston, A.M. Auburn and Buffalo. John E. Beardsley. 1895.
