Photograph Caption

Antony is called to Rome--but is reluctant to leave Cleopatra.

Dialogue

Antony: "Let Rome in Tiber melt, and the wide arch
Of the ranged empire fall! Here is my space.
Kingdoms are clay. Our dungy earth alike
Feeds beast as man. The nobleness of life
Is to do thus, when such a mutual pair [Embracing]
And such a twain can do't, in which I bind,
On pain of punishment, the world to weet
We stand up peerless." (I.ii.33-40).
