In this chapter, we are introduced to a number of new characters, each of whom are introduced in a different way. For example, in the first scene, we see the transformation of a young girl into a young woman; in the second scene, a young man into a man; and in the third scene, an old woman into a woman. The transformation of the young woman into the young man is explained in great detail. The young woman, however, is not the young girl, but the old woman's maid.
