I want to thank you
for sheltering my nephew.
:06:13
Gratitude has lead me here,
as well as the fact
:06:16
that you never visit the Circus
:06:20
- or the Amphitheatre.
- Old people grow fond of home.
:06:29
Let us listen to that laughter.
:06:32
- Aulus and Lygia are playing ball.
- Laughter, Petronius,
:06:37
seems to be your life's goal.
:06:40
Life is ajoke,
therefore I laugh.
:06:59
"Art thou mortal or divine?"
:07:04
"Were thou born in earthly nest,
be thy parents doubly blest"
:07:09
- "blest thy brethren"...
- "A man of value,"
:07:12
"and a man of wit."
:07:19
To hear Homer's verse

They say,
:07:34
the key to happiness
is sharing the gods' desires.
:07:38
But I suspect the existence
:07:42
of a different and greaterjoy,
:07:45
that only love
:07:48
may bring.
:07:55
Gods seek thatjoy,
:07:58
so...
