It was early in the morning. Aurelia was sitting in her room. Two slave women were taking care of her hair, one of whom was holding a mirror, the other a comb. Phyrgia, who was carelessly combing the hair, was annoying the mistress. Syra, who had a trembling hand, was not holding the mirror well. Therefore Aurelia, annoyed by their carelessness shouted, “How “negligent are you. Go Away Go away. Call Cornelia. I want to bring her with me to the city.” Immediately the slave women left. Soon Cornelia came into the room. “Why did you call me mother” Aurelia responded, "Your father invited certain friends, among whom are important senators, to dinner today. A slave already bought a pig, but I myself intend to go into the city to a certain merchant whose store is not very far. For that one is accustomed to sell the best dormice. If you want to go with me, wait for me in the atrium! Meanwhile I will order the slaves to carry chairs to the door.”
