In the second of ten Classical Dialogues, Compassion and Cruelty hover over two women with very different views about nutrition. Whispering cues in envelope-rhymed and blank verse, the Virtue and Vice prompt resolution of the issue: should a mother use harsh demands to get her theatrical daughter to lose weight, under pressure from other stage mothers? A Chorus of Graces poses the Question and Judgment, in Strophe, Antistrophe and Epode.
