Where does a man go after walking out of the gate? Romans assumed he would soon be forgotten. Where he went was Antium, a city of the Volscians.
He walks in with his face covered. He looks for the house of a man called Aufidius. This is the enemy commander he has crossed swords with many times.
The servants try to drive him out. Then he lifts the hood and gives his name. Aufidius looks at him and takes him in his arms.
