Chapter 20-resumé af Cleopatra

Chapter 20 af 34 · Book 2: The Fall of Harmachis · 13 min. til at læse chapter

In Chapter 20, Harmachis accuses Cleopatra of betraying her promises, fights her guards, and survives a severe wound after Charmion and Brennus plead for him. As he lies nearly motionless, he hears Cleopatra admit that she manipulates him for politics and accuse Charmion of loving him.

Hvad sker der?

  1. Cleopatra summons Harmachis, mocks his accusations, rejects marriage as bondage, and refuses to let him leave.
  2. Ordered seized, Harmachis takes Brennus’s weapons and overcomes three guards before Brennus wounds him from behind.
  3. Charmion shields Harmachis from the eunuchs, and Brennus joins her appeal until Cleopatra grants him his life.
  4. Harmachis suffers feverish visions of judgment and opposing voices debating whether suffering can redeem him.
  5. Awake but unable to move, Harmachis hears Cleopatra confess her political manipulation and her inability to return his love.
  6. Charmion describes ten days of nursing, denies loving Harmachis, and hears Cleopatra insist that her care reveals passion.
