Excerpt from These Splendid Women: With Introduction and Notes

The queen was waiting impatiently for news from Caesar. On the receipt of his first message, but partially transmitted by Pothinus, she had hastened to disband her army. She already felt full Confidence in the favor of the great leader who was called the husband of all women, but she knew that she must see Caesar, or rather that Caesar must see her. But the days passed and the invitation to Alexandria did not arrive. Finally the second message reached her, and she learned that Caesar had already sent for her to go to him, but that Pothinus had taken measures to prevent her knowing it.

Cleopatra, abandoning the idea of entering Alexandria with the trappings of a queen, bethought herself of a plan to do so not merely under a disguise, but as a bale of goods. Accompanied by a single devoted attendant.
