Cold Chamber: Round pool, kept cold by fistfuls of snow every hour, and a block of ice in a cage beneath the surface of the pool.

Oiling Chamber: empty room filled with brass beds underneath hypocaust vents, which makes them very warm. Laid on with very thin sheets, oiled up and massaged. may be done publicly, in which conversation happens, or in solitary chambers, by a servant, who may or may not provide sexual services therein.
