Chapter II.—Peter
Relates to Nicetas and Aquila the History of Clement and His
Family.
On my saying this, Peter gave them a summary
account1160
1160 [In
Recognitions, vii. 26, 27, the recapitulation is more
extended.—R.] | of all the
incidents,—how, when they had gone on before, I Clement had
explained to him my descent, the journey undertaken by my mother with
her twin children on the false pretext of the dream; and furthermore,
the journey undertaken by my father in search of her; and then how
Peter himself, after hearing this, went into the island, met with the
woman, saw her begging, and asked the reason of her so doing; and then
ascertained who she was, and her mode of life, and the feigned dream,
and the names of her children—that is, the name borne by me, who
was left with my father, and the names of the twin children who
travelled along with her, and who, she supposed, had perished in the
deep.
