Description
-
When Pármeno awakes at Areusa’s house, he discovers that it is already noon. Areusa (rightmost figure) asks him to stay and talk, but he tells her that Calisto will already be upset with his lateness. He asks her to join him, Sempronio, and Elicia for dinner at Celestina’s house, and she happily agrees. When Pármeno arrives at Calisto’s house, he is greeted by Sempronio, who chides him for his lateness (presumably depicted by the two leftmost figures). Pármeno explains that he has joined Sempronio and Celestina in their scam, and that he fallen in love with Elicia. Their friendship rekindled, they enter Calisto’s bedroom, where they find Calisto (right-central figure) talking to himself in verse. They tell him the time of day, and he decides to go to Saint Mary Magdalene’s church to pray.[The figures in this illustration are used in multiple other illustrations throughout this edition.]
