[Act XIX (Second Illustration) – Calisto’s Death]

Description
-
While Calisto and Melibea talk in her garden, Calisto hears noise in the street and asks his servants the cause of the commotion. Tristan tells him that Thraso and his companions had come to cause a ruckus, but that Sosia managed to scare them off. Regardless, Calisto hurries up the ladder to help them. He descends the outside ladder too quickly, falling to his death. Sosia and Tristan carry him home to protect him from speculation that might posthumously damage his reputation.[None of the elements in this illustration are found elsewhere in this edition.]
