PSeudolus - Marcus Lycus = A devious rogue...a in his emporium do reside the dexterous rascal...a ferret... most beauteous maidens in a fox...a fink! Five slaves the empire. Here come warriors,
sit Ty like him—and the fall of solons, et al-to have a Roman Rome is a sure thing! bacchanal!
Senex - Hero- is he not a man? Is he beardless, loveless, pied oles < not head of his household? eagerly waiting to be initiated Is he not a lion to his wife? into the mysteries of life. Alas, He is not! it's a long line!

Hysterium — Dolt! Fool! Reckless slave! A fly, a gnat, a mosquito in the web of life, a knot in the thread of love. Nature looks at him and weeps at her most grievous error!
ea Amazon, lithesome, lissome — and then some. A cornucopia of gifts... and how Rome loves corn!
Miles Gloriosus — Who is Caesar? Who is Antony? They are but babes compared to the might of this great warrior
| who raped Thrace thrice!

Erronius— a senile gladiator, pooped- out Praetorian, a Rex of a man, roaming Rome for his kidnapped heirs. You know how children are —heir today, gone tomorrow!
Philia— a Daphne, a Chloe an untouched cup of wine that all men would drink from. A peach,a pomegranate, a pleasure —in all the Forum there is no forum like hers! | 4 a Cn

Domina-— Tyrannus Femininus — Her tongue makes Jupiter tremble! It is from her that the world RAUL has received the most hated ~N 3 name for woman —Battle-Axe!
