From Book 112 (which is the fourth dealing with the civil war)

[112.1] It^note[Book 112.] tells about the panic and flight of the members of the defeated party to various parts of the world.

[112.2] When Gnaeus Pompey went to Egypt, he was, by order of king Ptolemy (Pompey's own pupil) but at the instigation of Pothinus and the king's influential teacher Theodotus, murdered in a small bark, before he could set foot ashore, by Achillas, who had been commanded to commit this crime.

[112.3] Pompey's wife Cornelia and his son Sextus Pompeius escaped to Cyprus.

[112.4] When Caesar arrived in pursuit on the third day, Theodotus showed him Pompey's head and ring, but Caesar was offended and wept.

[112.5] Without running any risks he entered a riotous Alexandria.

[112.6] Caesar, who had been made dictator, restored Cleopatra as queen of Egypt and he won through - at great personal risk - when Ptolemy attacked him, following the advice of the very men who had advised him to kill Pompey.

[112.7] When Ptolemy made his escape, his ship capsized in the Nile.

[112.8] It^note[Book 112.] also contains an account of the difficult march of Marcus [Porcius] Cato and his legions across the African desert, and an unsuccessful war against [king] Pharnaces^note[King of Pontus.] waged by Gnaeus Domitius.
