This is Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, waiting for Roman Emperor Julius Caesar.
We write the year 47 before our time.
Caesar's forces have just fought in Africa the superior army of Pompey, who was about to become the dictator of Rome.
And Cleopatra is claimed to be a sorceress who would have the power to subdue any man.
And that all the men who approached her would burn away in love with her.
