A character in the play which has
equal prominence with that OF Alex

James, is that of Perdiccas which VIII

diccas is a species of Iago, envious,
vengeful, INSCRIPTIONS; who uses his
Office of Prime Minister to further
solely his own ends. BY duplicity and
cunning, he retains the confidence and
loyal friendship of Alexander, whom
he is constantly harassing in unseen
ways, employing others for his cow
ardly purpose. His schemes are al
