This analysis argues that Apuleius's twists are not universally unpredictable for a Roman first reader, for whom a single word or group of words can conjure up associated concepts and actions Searching for the presence of similar groups of polysemous words in the novel may reveal other instances of hints for the first reader.	cache/jh343r10k5r.txt	txt/jh343r10k5r.txt
