Comment: | Heraclides of Thyatira was a candidate in the tragedy competition at Rome, and dreamt that he butchered the audience and the judges. He lost. People might kill enemies, but not friends. So in a way the dream was telling him that the audience and the judges would be hostile to him: and in any case they were hardly going to cast their votes for him with their throats cut. |
