Antony and Cleopatra Act 4, Scene 1

Caesar enters reading a letter from Antony, flanked by Agrippa, Maecenas and the army. Caesar reads that Antony calls him a boy, tells him that he has power to defeat him, and challenges him to a man-to-man fight. Caesar laughs at this challenge. Maecenas advises Caesar to take advantage of Antony's rage and battle with him right away. Caesar gives the order that tomorrow they will wage the last battle, and tonight the army will feast.
