The most notable thing that has changed in their respective circumstances at Dikaiopolis and Lamachus's second meeting is that at this point in the play the characters seem to have switched roles. Dikaiopolis has managed to keep most of the peace to himself and is joining a luxurious feast with the Priest of Dionysus. However Lamachus, who used to live off little work and lots of pay, is called to battle on the day of a feast.
