13a/1d the start of Enobarbus's famous speech about the eponymous heroine in Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra.

Thanking you

[fiction-factory]

Letter count and known pattern would help please

[scorpiojo]

Letter count please, Clare?

[dannyk13]

"I will tell you the barge she came in" are the opening words

[fiction-factory]

Or was it the barge she SAT in

[dannyk13]

Sat in is correct although I don 't think the letter count will go that far
