[27] "The higher priced slaves were kept in a sort of cage, which drew, by its air of mystery, the attention of the connoisseurs."--Wallon, vol.
II, p. 54.
[28] The slave was obliged to lift weights, to march, to leap, to prove his vigor and agility. (Wallon, vol. II, p. 59.)
[29] The feet of women and children were daubed with white clay.
(Wallon.)
[30] See Petronius for details of Roman patrician "fas.h.i.+ons."
[31] For these shameful manners, which respect for humanity renders unpicturable, see Tacitus, Martial, Juvenal, and above all Petronius.
[32] See above authors.
[33] The master was civilly responsible for the acts of his slave, the same as for those of his dog. (Wallon, vol. II, p. 183.)
