1 Esdras 4:29 In-Context

27 Others have been put to death, have ruined their lives, or have committed crimes because of a woman.
28 So now do you believe me? "The emperor's power is certainly great - no nation has the courage to attack him.
29 But once I saw him with Apame, his concubine, the daughter of the famous Bartacus. While sitting at the emperor's right,
30 she took his crown off his head, put it on her own, and then slapped his face with her left hand.
31 All the emperor did was look at her with his mouth open. Whenever she smiles at him, he smiles back; and when she gets angry with him, he flatters her and teases her until she is in a good mood again.
