The great centers of attraction in the life of Epiphanes, were at Antioch, in Macedon and in Greece, while Egypt became secondary in importance. The record of a few events only comprises the history of Egypt during his reign.

How, in what state of mind, or in what manner he expired, ...is not known ; no one being present except his infamous concubine, Agathoclea, her brother and mother, who had entire possession of the king's person, and of tlfe infant heir, whose mother had been pre- viously assassinated. They concealed for a time the fact of the king's death, until they could provide for themselves, by purloining the money, jewels and other effects in the palace. These they carried off and concealed, and then coming THE KINGDOM OF BRASS. 121 forward with the child, announced his majesty's death, and declared that the late royal father, in his expiring momenta, had committed the darling son to the care of Agathoclea, during his minority.
