Her arms were naked to the shoul- der, and from the peaks of her splendid bosom, which betrayed its superb curves be- neath a mauve-rose tunic, fell two graceful folds of drapery that seemed to have been sculptured in marble by Phidias or Cleo- menes.
The sight of that bosom, so faultless in contour, so pure in its outlines, magnetic- ally affected Octavian. It seemed to him that those rich curves corresponded perfectly to that hollow mould in the museum at Naples which had thrown him into so a...rdent a reverie, and from the depths of his heart a voice cried out to him that this woman was indeed the same who had been suffocated in the villa of Arrius Diomedes by the cinders of Vesuvius. What prodigy, then, enabled him to behold her living, and witnessing the performance of the Casinaoi Plautus ? But he forbore to seek an explanation of the problem. For that matter, how did he him- self happen to be there ? He accepted the fact of his presence as in dreams we never 266 ARRIA MARCELLA question the intervention of persons actually long dead, but who seem to act nevertheless like living people; besides, his emotion for- bade him to reason.
