The carriage is stuck in a ditch, and the carriage driver is not able to move it.
-
Then Eucleides asked, "Do you see the building, master?"
-
"It is an inn. Do you want to spend the night there, master?"
-
Aurelia yells, "Oh my! I do not like inns. The danger is often large."
-
"Perhaps the innkeeper has horses. Perhaps the innkeeper's horses are able to pull the carriage out of the ditch."
-
"I am afraid to spend the night in the inn."
-
"Why are you afraid, misstress?" Eucleides says. "There is no danger. Not all inns are wicked. This innkeeper is my friend. Greacus is a good man."
-
Then Aurelia, "Cornelius is a Roman Senator. Roman Senators do not spend the night in an inn."
-
Cornelius asks, "What can we do? We can't spend the night in the Appian Way. No vehicles appear because it is getting dark. There is no help. It is necesary to go to the inn. Come on, boys!"
-
Therefore, Eucleides leads the Cornelius's to the inn, and the carriage driver remains in the road alone; he guards the carriage and the horses.
