Description
Xiphares. On nous faisoit, Arbate, un fidele rapport : Rome en effet triomphe, et Mithridate est mort. Les Romains, vers l'Euphrate, ont attaque mon pere, et trompe dans la nuit sa prudence ordinaire. Apres un long combat, tout son camp disperse dans la foule des morts, en fuyant, l'a laisse ; et j'ai su qu'un soldat dans les mains de Pompee avec son diademe a remis son epee. Ainsi ce roi, qui seul a durant quarante ans lasse tout ce que Rome eut de chefs importants, et qui dans l'orient balancant la fortune, vengeoit de tous les rois la querelle commune, meurt, et laisse apres lui, pour venger son trepas, deux fils infortunes qui ne s'accordent pas. Arbate. Vous, seigneur ! Quoi ? L'ardeur de regner en sa place rend deja Xiphares ennemi de Pharnace ? Xiphares. Non, je ne pretends point, cher Arbate, a ce prix d'un malheureux empire acheter le debris. Je sais en lui des ans respecter l'avantage ; et content des etats marques pour mon partage, je verrai sans regret tomber entre ses mains tout ce que lui promet l'amitie des Romains.
