Description: The two figures on the left are likely intended to represent Pármeno and Areusa, whom Celestina unites as a reward for Pármeno’s loyalty. To the right, we see Celestina interacting with a group of four male figures. This scene is not in any way related to the events of Act VII.[This illustration is identical to those found in Acts I (folio 9r), IX (folio 67r), XI (folio 80r), XII (folio 83v), XIV (folio 96v), XVI (folio 106v), and XIX (folio 115v).]
