Gitone leaves Encolpio, and he is eventually led by the poet Eumolpus, to a banquet of Trimalchio's, a rich man. During the endless, vulgar and uncultured banquet, Encolpio saves Eumolpus who had enraged Trimalchio and was about to be punished, and they escape from the villa, only for Encolpio to be imprisoned in a ship by soldiers. There, the leader of the ship, merchant Lichas who serves the Emperor, is smitten by Encolpio, and unable to refuse, Encolpio must marry Lichas. However, the ship is taken over by the new Emperor's rebels, and Lichas is killed. Encolpio leaves the ship, and becomes free again...
