In a biased court scene a judge pressures three men to accept a single wife as his wife. He offers wine laced with a sugar powder to spur consent, then dismisses two claimants and reveals the survivor must care for the woman until death. The event unfolds amid chaotic testimonies and moral tales from various anecdotes and local recollections.
A fragmentary survey blends ancient Rome lore on Capitoline walls and St. Paul’s connections with Ancus Maritus with scattered jokes and household vignettes. It mentions Catiline, Sallust, Cicero, and a curious mix of humor pieces from Bateson, Hankey, and others, including a Danish police anecdote about keeping drunkards in check.
