:43:01
I want to give you a gift...
:43:03
A bracelet of solid gold.
:43:08
Look, he gave me this...it's gold!
:43:09
Look, he gave me...
:43:13
And me! You're forgetting me!
:43:14
Please give me some earrings!
:43:20
That's it!
I'm not giving anyone anything!

:43:29
No one has ever been able to tell us...
:43:31
what the realm of the dead is like...
:43:33
whereas we all know...
:43:35
how much we like the realm of the living.
:43:38
And who doesn't know
the Matron of Ephesus's story?

:43:42
There once was a beautiful young woman...
:43:45
quite virtuous...
who suddenly was widowed.

:44:07
According to Greek custom,
the husband's body:

:44:11
was placed in the crypt:
:44:13
but the honest and loyal widow
wouldn't leave his side:

:44:16
Night and days he kept vigil and cried:
:44:19
and wanted to starve to death:
:44:21
Everyone left:
:44:22
only she remained there:
:44:25
Not far from the tomb:
:44:27
a thief sentenced to death
had been hanged:

:44:30
and a handsome soldier was keeping
guard over him:

:44:56
Why do you want to starve yourself
to death?
