Offences against Condition - Adultery

By and by another woman, Callione, makes
her appearance. Deucalion, having cohabited with
Pyrrha for some time more beautiful
, addresses her obtains her consent
& cohabits with her. Pyrrha by this means loses
all the pleasures she was in use to enjoy derive from the
company of Deucalion. Mean time she advances
in her second pregnancy. She goes through the
same scene of troubles she went through before,
a part of the former to wit the attendance upon
the first child still remaining. The possession of This second child
sets affords her not the same pleasure which that
of the first did. A great part of that former pleasure
consisted in retaining looking from time to time upon the child as
a memorial of the pleasures she had enjoyed with
it's father, and as an earnest of other pleasures
of the same kind still to come: in regarding it as
a kind of part and copy of that another part as it were of that same father: in seeing
this love of it's father towards her increased by the
pleasure of this a new possession - common acquisition thus accruing to them in common:
of seeing a portion as it were of her own substance indissolubly joined
united to with a portion of the substance of her
beloved and indissolubly united in the same being.
The charm is now dissolved: a great part of these
pleasures are now at an end, and a great part of
them are even converted into pains: pains of
regret and disappointment and regret. Another disadvantage on the side of Pyrrha.

Sophronia who becomes a witness of the
distress of Pyrrha resolves never to expose her -self
