Description: When Celestina returns home, she finds Sempronio waiting there with Elicia. She tells him that she has good news, but she makes him wait until they are with Calisto to hear it. They go to Calisto’s house together, and Pármeno sees them as they approach. He tells Calisto of their arrival, and Calisto orders him to open the door.[This illustration is identical to the one found on page 27 of the text (folio b7r): [Act I (Third Illustration) – Celestina and Sempronio Talking as Crito Descends the Staircase].
