[Act XVII – Elicia, Sosia, and Areusa]

Description
-
Some time after telling Sosia that Areusa wanted to speak with him, Elicia visits Areusa to see if this has occurred. Shortly after she enters Areusa’s house and greets her, Sosia knocks at the door. Elicia conceals herself. Areusa manipulates Sosia into divulging where, when, and how Calisto enters Melibea’s garden. Sosia also tells her that Calisto is set to visit that same night at midnight. Upon acquiring this information, she tells Sosia that she has other matters to attend, and he departs.[The figures in this illustration are used in multiple other illustrations throughout this edition. Also, the choice to depict Sosia using a female figure is rather odd, seeing as there are multiple male figures used elsewhere in this edition.]
