Welcome, my Lord/Lady to the Domus of Lukas Cornelius Antonius, Senator and Legatus of the Roman army. Please have a seat and allow me to fetch some wine for you to drink, and water to be brought to wash your feet.

I will tell my master Lukas Cornelius Antonius that you were here to visit him. Shall I give him a message? If so, please give it to me and I will deliver it on to him. He is a very busy man. If you need to see him in person, he may likely be found at the Senate House sitting among the liberals of the Senate.

If he is not at the Senate, my Lord/Lady, then he may be found at the baths where such men congregate and socialize. My Master often goes there to make agreements and strike deals with other Senators, hoping to win himself more votes as he campaigns for consulship this year.

“My hopes are not always realized, but I always hope.” Ovid

Loneliness is a darkness that I have known,
A shadow in a field that I have sewn.
Loneliness, it casts its black rays on me
Deeper and darker than the deepest sea.
Loneliness, it is this illness in my mind
This friend who loves to leave me behind.
Loneliness, it is a lover who always leaves,
A sister for whom your death never grieves.
Loneliness, it is a mother who refuses to embrace
A weeping child with dirt on its face.
Loneliness, it is a father who loves to beat
A brother who never protects but retreats.
Loneliness, it is a god who never hears
An evil that fills me with fear.
Loneliness, I have it deep within my heart
And from its arms, I cannot depart.
