"The God Abandons Antony" ({{lang-gr|Ἀπολείπειν ὁ θεὸς Ἀντώνιον}}; also translated as "The God Forsakes Antony") is a poem by Constantine P. Cavafy, published in 1911. The poem refers to Plutarch's story of how Antony, besieged in Alexandria by Octavian, heard the sounds of instruments and voices of a procession making its way through the city, then passing out; the god Bacchus (Dionysus), Antony's protector, was deserting him;[1] the poem's title itself is a verbatim quotation from Plutarch's text.[1] AdaptationsLeonard Cohen freely adapted the poem for his song "Alexandra Leaving" (Ten New Songs, 2001).[2] Whereas Cavafy's theme was based around the city of Alexandria, Cohen's version builds around a woman named Alexandra.
