In this scene Enobardus, an Antony's friend, tells about Cleopatra with Agrippa, another Antony's friend.
Enobardus tells the first time that Antony meets Cleopatra, when she is on her boat and he falls in love to her.
In this description Enobardus magnifays Cleopatra, instead he tells that her boat is as a fire on the water; but it is impossible, because the water burns out the fire, so it's the passion's symbol and it is negative, on the contrary the water is the salvation and woman's symbol and it is positive.
After that he says that her perfume annoys even to the air and it means that she exaggerates and she goes too far for a woman; but it isn't a problem, because she is beautiful and powerful. So Antony cannot resist to Cleopaytra's beauty, even if he was a brave soldier.
