The Satericon by Petronius

We don't know if she was successful with this potion slash magic. But how does the poem end? It ends kind of on a bit of a knife edge cliffhanger, I guess you'd say. The boy gives as good as he gets at the end or as much as he can while buried up to the neck. He stops begging and he says to her, 'I'm going to come back as a vengeful fury' That's Horace. Let's turn to another text, shall we? You've got down here, Petronius. Who is he and what was the context that he was writing under? So let's do an episode on Trmalchio.
