Casina (Italy) (search for this): act intro, scene argument
THE ACROSTIC ARGUMENT. [Supposed to have been written by Priscian the Grammarian.] Two fellow-servants seek their fellow-servant (Conservam) as a wife; the old man prompts the one (Alium), his son the other. A decision by lot (Sors) favours the old man; but he is deceived by a stratagem; and so (Ita) for him, in place of the damsel, a rascally (Nequam) servant is substituted, who thrashes his master and the bailiff. The young man (Adolescens) marries Casina, when known to be a citizen.
