Recitativo
Tolomeo
Vinta cadesti al balenar di questo mio fulmine reale.
Cleopatra
Tolomeo non mi vinse;
mi tradì quella cieca,
che, tiran, ti protegge,
senz'onor, senza fede, e senza legge.
Tolomeo
Olà! sì baldanzosa
del vincitor al riverito aspetto?
(alle guardie):
S'incateni costei.
(Una guardia incatena Cleopatra)
Cleopatra
Empio crudel! ti puniranno gli dèi.
Tolomeo
Costei, che per germano aborro e sdegno, si conduca alla reggia; io colà voglio
che, ad onta del suo ardire,
genuflessa m'adori a piè del soglio.
Recitative
Tolomeo
You won at the flash of my real thunderbolt.
Cleopatra
Tolomeo did not win me;
he betrayed me blind,
that, tiran, protects you,
without honor, without faith, and without law.
Tolomeo
Hey there! so bold
of the winner to the revered appearance?
(to the guards):
Come on with this.
(A guard chained Cleopatra)
Cleopatra
Empio crudel! the gods will punish you.
Tolomeo
She, who, as a German, abhor and indignation, leads to the palace; I want it
that, in spite of its daring,
genuflessa adore me at the foot of the throne.
