Note PG27 — DRAMATIS PERSONÆ.
Rich. Fr. Phil. (Richard François Philippe) Brunck translation
A second Chorus enters—of women who are hurrying up with water to extinguish the fire just started by the Chorus of old men. Nicodicé, Calycé, Crityllé, Rhodippé, are fancy names the poet gives to different members of the band. Another, Stratyllis, has been stopped by the old men on her way to rejoin her companions.
