GINN & COMPANY, PUBLISHERS 1895 Copyright, 1891, By William C. Collar. All Rights Reserved. Typography by J. S. Cushing & Co., Boston, U.S.A. Presswork by Ginn & Co., Boston, U.S.A. PREFACE. The recent discovery of a work of Aristotle has interested and delighted the whole learned world; but one may venture to say that if, instead, a book had been found written in the best period of the Latin language for the amusement or instruction of youth, by some Roman De Foe, or Goldsmith, or Lamb, or Burnett, there would be ten times the reason for rejoicing. Unhappily there is no likelihood that we shall ever congratulate ourselves on such a "find," for probably no such work ever existed. What a misfortune that it did not occur to Cicero to divert himself in some leisure hour by writing a story for Roman youth! Millions of boys and girls in these later ages would have had good reason to bless his name. Cæsar could have done it; but to him, too, the gods denied such an inspiration, and we must suffer for it. Seeing that he had composed a treatise on Latin Grammar, one almost wonders that a mind so original and fertile should not have conceived the idea of adapting his Gallic War, or some part of it, to the powers and comprehension of youth. What measureless gratitude would he not have won from unborn generations of schoolmasters, who have now to struggle desperately and often unavailingly to make clear to their pupils the meaning of his intricate periods, and untwist the strands of his knotty syntax! Cæsar is a difficult author. Some parts of his Gallic War are as hard, or nearly as hard, as any prose Latin that has come down to us. Yet it has somehow strangely enough become the fashion to read that work first in a Latin course. My own conviction is that for young learners a year's reading in easier Latin is not too much before taking up the less difficult books of the Gallic War. Even then the transition to Cæsar comes with something of a shock; for the learner is soon and often brought face to face with sentences that seem to him of most bewildering intricacy, however they may, as commentators sometimes remark, beautifully illustrate most important principles of Latin order and construction. There is a sentence in the second book, by no means the most difficult one to be found, that extends through eighteen lines,--that is, something more than half a page,--containing twenty-one distinct ideas, and having the verb separated from its subject by ninety-four words. I know no more disheartening task than that of undertaking to carry a class unprepared in age and knowledge of the language through Cæsar's Gallic War. Yet it is precisely this disheartening task that thousands of teachers are set to do, or set themselves to do, every year. The results are often dismal enough. Teachers are blamed, they blame themselves, they blame their pupils. Pupils may sometimes be stupid, teachers may lack knowledge of the language and the subject, but the fault may also lie wholly with the author or with the Latin language itself; if with the latter, there is no help. Latin, it must be confessed, is an exceedingly difficult language to learn. All the more reason then why, in attacking it, every unnecessary obstacle should be removed. We should make our approaches with caution and skill; we should take it, if possible, _aperto latere_. We should not begin with a difficult work; or if, in the dearth of Latin suited to the juvenile mind, this is deemed unavoidable, common sense suggests the query, _why not remove provisionally[1] from the text those more intricate parts that discourage the learner and bar the way of progress_? [Footnote 1: It is presumed that the learner will subsequently read the complete text.] Cæsar knew how to write his own language well; but he wrote for men, he wrote with compression and in haste, and there are passages in his works that are tough reading for a good Latin scholar. It is the fashion to praise Cæsar's lucidity; but brevity and haste are not conducive to lucidity. "Ther nys no werkman, what so ever he be, That may bothe werke wel, and hastily. This wol be doon at leyser parfitly." For my part I confess that I sometimes find him obscure. Moreover, when I am in doubt as to his meaning and appeal to the commentators, I find that they generally disagree and sometimes quarrel about the sense. Therefore to put young learners to reading Cæsar as his text stands, bristling with difficulties, before they have acquired anything more than a meagre vocabulary and gained a modicum of insight by some practice in reading easier Latin, is to set them at a task harder than that which Pharaoh set the Israelites. I am of the opinion that, even when a fair working vocabulary has been acquired through some previous reading, there is no book of the Gallic War that does not require a certain degree of simplification to bring it to the level of the powers of young boys and girls. It is this conviction born of long observation of the vexation of spirit, discouragement, and waste of time by pupils in wrestling with difficulties that inevitably floor them, that has prompted me to put my hand to this work, which, slight as it may seem, has cost me the leisure of many months. But I shall feel repaid tenfold, if, through this little book, boys and girls are enabled to read Cæsar with less waste of time, more easily, with fresher interest, and added sense of power; if, in other words, it proves in reality what it is in name, a Gate to Cæsar. A few words will be sufficient to explain the principle on which I have simplified Cæsar's text, the amount of excision, and the degree of change. It would have been a comparatively easy task to simplify the text by the mere process of omission, never deviating from the _ipsissima verba_ of the author by so much as the change of a mode or tense. One could do this and still string together the _disjecta membra_ of the text into something like a connected narrative. But that would be to preserve the integrity of the words at the expense of everything else,--inner relation, structure, style, spirit. Or the simplification might be effected by a virtual rewriting of the text, by amplification rather than suppression, coupled with changes in the collocation of words, where the arrangement seemed to obscure the meaning and perplex the learner. My purpose and plan differed essentially from both these methods. My aim has been, first, to keep the narrative intact; second, to retain as much of the text as was consistent with the effort to disburden it of its greater difficulties; third, to make the fewest practicable changes in what was retained, save the modification of some verb forms, and the occasional rendering of indirect into direct discourse; fourth, very rarely to change the position of a word; finally, never to insert a word, except now and then to supply a form plainly understood, or to introduce some connective, like _et_, _tum_, _itaque_, _autem_, _ergo_, _postremo_. As to the amount of excision, I find that I have omitted almost exactly one-fifth of Cæsar's text. If the beginner in Cæsar reads the simplified text and concurrently turns the Exercises into Latin, laying firm hold of the grammatical principles selected for illustration, I believe he will find the remaining difficulties of the original text not beyond his scope. I should even hope that he would then read with something of the joy of conscious power. If the reading of the texts and the writing of the Exercises should require more time than is usually spent on the second book of Cæsar, which, however, I doubt, I believe subsequent progress would still be rapid and satisfactory enough to amount to a net gain and saving of time. It has seemed best to mark long vowels, except the vowels of final syllables and of monosyllables, the rules for which can be readily learned. I have, however, marked a few monosyllables, as a constant reminder to teachers who find their old pronunciation clinging to certain words. We used to say _h{i}s_, _s{i}c_, _n{o}n_, _qu{i}n_, _h{o}c_. These words, therefore, I have marked. On the other hand, one is in no danger of saying _d{e}_, _h{i}_, _s{i}_, _pr{o}_, for old habit would not mislead. I take pleasure in acknowledging my obligations to Mr. Alfred G. Rolfe for several useful criticisms, and to Miss Caroline Ober Stone for valuable corrections and for carefully reading the proof-sheets as far as the vocabularies. To Mr. Clarence W. Gleason I am specially indebted. But for his timely and generous aid in preparing both vocabularies, the publication of this book must have been very considerably delayed. WILLIAM C. COLLAR. SEACONNET, July 25, 1891. CONTENTS. PAGE Introductory Note x Simplified Text 1-22 Complete Text 23-41 Notes on Both Texts 43-71 Exercises on Simplified Text 73-88 Vocabulary 89-123 Etymological Vocabulary 125-141 NOTE ON THE USE OF THE BOOK. The Simplified Text and the Exercises based upon it are of the first importance. The _viva voce_ translation of the Exercises, followed by the writing of them, will illustrate and help to implant in the memory the most important principles of syntax met with in the text. Let the teacher insist upon thorough work here, and he may safely omit other syntactical instruction. But little power of reading Latin can be gained without making the acquisition of a working vocabulary a distinct object. The Latin synonyms and the Etymological Vocabulary may be made useful agents to that end. If the words added to each chapter are read aloud, reviewed, and compared where backward references are made, the learner will acquire a useful stock of synonyms easily, naturally, and with small expenditure of time. It is often easier to retain in mind a number of words, grouped according to some principle of similarity or contrast, than a single word with nothing to hook it to the memory. For this reason it is recommended that the Etymological Vocabulary be often pressed into the service. Suppose, for example, the word _conspectus_ occurs in the lesson. If the teacher will turn to page 138 and have the ten words read out under the root SPEC, he will multiply several times the chances that this particular word will be remembered on its next occurrence. He will have done much more. He will have increased the chances that nine other words will be lodged in the memory; and to each one a fresh interest will be added by its being seen in relation, not as an isolated, and therefore barren, fact. The first vocabulary may be used for comparing in the text the different meanings and uses of the same word. It is through such comparisons that one gets at the heart and spirit of the language, while cultivating at the same time a mental habit of great value. Having read the Simplified Text, the learner should be well equipped for wrestling with the difficulties that remain in the unchanged text, for he is already familiar with the thought and the language. Comparison of the two texts by the teacher, so far as time permits, may now be made to illustrate important principles, as of indirect discourse, which are here and there discussed in the notes. CÆSAR'S GALLIC WAR BOOK II. B.C. 57; A.U.C. 697. THE BELGIAN LEAGUE DEFEATED. SIMPLIFIED TEXT. _The Belgæ form a league against the Romans._ 1. Cum esset Caesar in citeriôre Gallia, crêbri ad eum rûmôres adferêbantur. Litteris item Labiêni certior fîêbat omnes Belgas contra populum Rômânum coniûrâre obsidêsque inter se dare. Coniûrandi hae erant causae: prîmum verêbantur ne ad se exercitus noster addûcerêtur; 5 deinde ab nônnûllis Gallis sollicitâbantur. Hi Germânos diûtius in Gallia versâri nôluerant et populi Rômâni exercitum hiemâre atque inveterâscere in Gallia moleste ferêbant. Nônnûlli môbilitâte et levitâte animi novis imperiis studêbant. Ab nônnûllis etiam sollicitâbantur, 10 quod in Gallia a potentiôribus atque iis qui ad condûcendos homines facultâtes habêbant, vulgo rêgna occupâbantur; qui minus facile eam rem imperio nostro cônsequi poterant. +crêber+, _frequens_. +vereor+, _timeo_. +deinde+, _tum_. +versor+: _maneo_, _sum_. +moleste+, _graviter_. +studeo+, _cupio_. _Cæsar levies two legions and marches against them._ 2. Hîs nûntiis litterîsque commôtus est Caesar. Duas legiônes in citeriôre Gallia novas cônscrîpsit. In interiôrem Galliam qui hâs legiônes dêdûceret Q. Pedium lêgâtum mîsit. Ipse, cum prîmum pâbuli côpia esse inciperet, ad exercitum vênit. Senones fînitimi Belgis 5 erant. Ea quae apud Belgas geruntur côgnôscunt Caesaremque de hîs rêbus certiôrem faciunt. Hi cônstanter omnes nûntiâvêrunt manus côgi, exercitum in ûnum locum condûci. Tum vêro nôn dubitâvit Caesar quîn ad eos proficîscerêtur.

Eo de imprôvîso celeriterque vênit Caesar. Rêmi ad eum lêgâtos Iccium et Andocumborium mîsêrunt, qui dîxêrunt se omnia in fidem atque in potestâtem populi Rômâni permittere. "Rêmi neque cum Belgis reliquis cônsênsêrunt neque contra populum Rômânum coniûrâvêrunt. 5 Parâti sunt obsides dare et Caesaris imperâta facere et eum oppidis recipere et frûmento cêterîsque rêbus iuvâre. Reliqui omnes Belgae in armis sunt. Germâni, qui cis Rhênum incolunt, sêse cum hîs coniûnxêrunt. Tantus est eôrum omnium furor ut ne Suessiônes quidem 10 dêterrêre possint Rêmi. Suessiônes frâtres Rêmôrum cônsanguineîque sunt eôdemque iûre et îsdem lêgibus ûtuntur.

Cum ab hîs quaereret quae cîvitâtes quantaeque in armis essent et quid in bello possent, sîc reperiêbat: plêrîque Belgae sunt orti ab Germânis Rhênumque antîquitus trâducti ibi cônsêdêrunt, Gallôsque qui ea loca incolêbant expulêrunt. Sôli fuêrunt qui Teutonos Cimbrôsque 5 intra fînes suos ingredi prohibuêrunt. Qua ex re fîêbat ut mâgnam sibi auctôritâtem mâgnôsque spîritus in re mîlitâri sûmerent. De numero eôrum omnia se habêre explôrâta Rêmi dîcêbant. Quantam quisque multitûdinem in commûni Belgârum concilio ad id bellum pollicitus 10 esset côgnôverant. Plûrimum inter eos Bellovaci et virtûte et auctôritâte et hominum numero valêbant. Hi poterant cônficere armâta mîlia centum; polliciti sunt ex eo numero êlêcta sexâginta tôtîusque belli imperium sibi postulâbant. Suessiônes Rêmôrum erant fînitimi; 15 lâtissimos ferâcissimôsque agros possidêbant. Apud eos fuit rêx nostra etiam memoria Divitiacus, tôtîus Galliae potentissimus, qui cum mâgnae partis hârum regiônum tum etiam Britanniae imperium obtinuit. Nunc erat rêx Galba; ad hunc propter iûstitiam prûdentiamque suam 20 belli summa dêlâta est. +quaero+, _interrogo_. +reperio+, _côgnôsco_. +orior+, _nâscor_. +cônsîdo+, _me colloco_. +spîritus+: _adrogantia_, _animi_. +explôro+, _côgnôsco_. +valeo+, _possum_. +cônficio+, _comparo_. +ferax+, _fertilis_. +summa+: _cûra_, _imperium_. _He takes hostages from the Remi and crosses the Axona._ 5. Caesar omnem senâtum ad se convenîre prîncipumque lîberos obsides ad se addûci iûssit. Quae omnia ab hîs dîligenter ad diem facta sunt. Ipse Divitiacum Aeduum mâgno opere cohortâtus est. Rei pûblicae interest manus hostium distinêri, ne cum tanta multitûdine ûno tempore 5 cônflîgendum sit. Id fieri potest, si suas côpias Aedui in fînes Bellovacôrum intrôdûxerint et eôrum agros populâri coeperint. Hîs mandâtis eum ab se dîmittit. Postea Caesar omnes Belgârum côpias in ûnum locum coâctas ad se venîre vîdit neque iam longe abesse. Hôc ab iis 10 quôs mîserat explôrâtôribus et ab Rêmis côgnôvit. Tum flûmen Axonam exercitum trâdûcere mâtûrâvit atque ibi castra posuit. Quae res latus ûnum castrôrum rîpis flûminis mûniêbat et post eum quae essent tûta ab hostibus reddêbat. Commeâtus etiam ab Rêmis reliquîsque cîvitâtibus 15 sine perîculo portâri poterant. In eo flûmine pôns erat. Ibi praesidium pônit et in altera parte flûminis Q.

Ab hîs castris oppidum Rêmôrum nômine Bibrax aberat mîlia passuum octo. Id ex itinere mâgno impetu Belgae oppûgnâre coepêrunt. Aegre eo die sustentâtum est. Gallôrum eadem atque Belgârum oppûgnâtio est haec. Circumiecta multitûdine hominum tôtis moenibus 5 undique in mûrum lapides iaciunt. Ubi mûrus dêfênsôribus nûdâtus est, testûdine facta portas succêdunt mûrumque subruunt. Quod tum facile fîêbat. Nam cum tanta multitûdo lapides âc têla cônicerent, in mûro cônsistendi potestas erat nûlli. Postrêmo fînem oppûgnandi nox 10 fêcit. Tum Iccius Rêmus, qui oppido praefuerat, nûntium ad Caesarem mittit: nisi subsidium sibi submittâtur, sêse diûtius sustinêre nôn posse. +tôtus+, _omnis_. +undique+, _ex omni parte_. +ubi+, _cum_. +nûdo+, _prîvo_. +succêdo+: _accêdo_, _subeo_. +subruo+, _suffodio_. +cônsisto+, _sto_. +praesum+, _praefectus sum_. +subsidium+, _auxilium_. +sustineo+, _sustento_. _They abandon the siege and turn against Cæsar._ 7. Eo de media nocte Caesar Numidas et Crêtas sagittârios et funditôres Baleâres subsidio oppidânis mittit; quôrum adventu hostibus spes potiundi oppidi discessit. Itaque paulisper apud oppidum morâti agrôsque Rêmôrum dêpopulâti ad castra Caesaris omnibus côpiis contendêrunt 5 et ab mîlibus passuum minus duôbus castra posuêrunt; quae castra, ut fûmo atque îgnibus sîgnificâbâtur, amplius mîlibus passuum octo in lâtitûdinem patêbant. +subsidium+, _auxilium_, 6. +potior+, _occupo_. +discêdo+, _abeo_. +paulisper+, _nôn diu_. +moror+, _cunctor_. +dêpopulor+, _vâsto_. +contendo+, _mâtûro_, 5. +pateo+, _pertineo_. _Cæsar awaits the attack of the enemy._ 8. Caesar prîmo propter multitûdinem hostium et propter eximiam opîniônem virtûtis proelio supersedêre statuit; cotîdie tamen quid hostis virtûte posset et quid nostri audêrent perîclitâbâtur. Locus erat pro castris ad aciem înstruendam nâtûra opportûnus atque idôneus. Is 5 autem collis, ubi castra posita erant, paululum ex plânitie êditus tantum adversus in lâtitûdinem patêbat quantum loci acies înstrûcta occupâre poterat. Atque ex utrâque parte lateris dêiectus habêbat, et in frôntem lêniter fastîgâtus paulâtim ad plânitiem redîbat. Ab utrôque latere 10 êius collis trânsversam fossam obdûxit circiter passuum quadringentôrum et ad extrêmas fossas castella cônstituit ibique tormenta conlocâvit, ne hostes ab lateribus pûgnantes suos circumvenîre possent. Hôc facto duâbus legiônibus quâs proxime cônscrîpserat in castris relîctis, 15 reliquas sex legiônes pro castris in acie cônstituit.

Palus erat nôn mâgna inter nostrum atque hostium exercitum. Hanc si nostri trânsîrent hostes exspectâbant. Interim proelio equestri inter duas acies contendêbâtur. Ubi neutri trânseundae êius palûdis initium faciunt, secundiôre equitum proelio nostris Caesar suos 5 in castra redûxit. Hostes prôtinus ex eo loco ad flûmen Axonam contendêrunt, quod esse post nostra castra dêmônstrâtum est. Partem suârum côpiârum trâdûcere cônâti sunt, ut castellum cui praeerat Q.

Caesar omnem equitâtum et levis armâtûrae Numidas, funditôres sagittâriôsque pontem trâdûcit atque ad eos contendit. Âcriter in eo loco pûgnâtum est. Hostes impedîtos nostri in flûmine adgressi mâgnum eôrum numerum occîdêrunt. Prîmos qui trânsierant equitâtu 5 circumventos interfêcêrunt. Hostes, ubi de expûgnando oppido spem se fefellisse intellêxêrunt neque nostros in locum inîquiôrem prôgredi vîdêrunt atque ipsos res frûmentâria dêficere coepit, concilium convocâvêrunt. Cônstituêrunt optimum esse domum suam quemque reverti. 10 Cônstituêrunt etiam ut quôrum in fînes prîmum Rômâni exercitum intrôdûxissent ad eos dêfendendos undique convenîrent. Quod eo cônsilio fêcêrunt, ut potius in suis quam in aliênis fînibus dêcertârent. Ad eam sententiam haec ratio eos dêdûxit, quod Divitiacum atque Aeduos 15 fînibus Bellovacôrum adpropînquâre côgnôverant.

Hâc re statim Caesar per speculâtôres côgnita însidias veritus exercitum equitâtumque castris continuit. Prîma 5 lûce omnem equitâtum qui novissimum âgmen morârêtur praemîsit. T.

Hîs trâditis omnibusque armis ex oppido conlâtis, ab eo loco in fînes Ambiânôrum pervênit. 5 Eôrum fînes Nervii attingêbant; quôrum de nâtûra môribusque Caesar cum quaereret, sîc reperiêbat: Nûllus aditus erat ad eos mercâtôribus; nihil patiêbantur vîni reliquârumque rêrum înferri, quod iis rêbus relanguêscere animos et remitti virtûtem exîstimâbant: 10 erant homines feri mâgnaeque virtûtis; increpitâbant atque incûsâbant reliquos Belgas, qui se populo Rômâno dêdidissent. +auctôritas+, _grâtia_, 14. +posco+, _impero_. +cônfero+, _côgo_, 2. +attingo+, _contingo_. +aditus+, _accessus_. +patior+, _sino_. +relanguêsco+, _effêminor_. +remitto+, _minuo_. +incûso+, _accûso_. +dêdo+, _permitto_. _Encamped on the Sabis the Nervii await the coming of Cæsar._ 16. Cum per eôrum fînes trîduum iter fêcisset, inveniêbat ex captîvis Sabim flûmen ab castris suis nôn amplius mîlia passuum x abesse. Trâns id flûmen omnes Nervii cônsêderant adventumque ibi Rômânôrum exspectâbant. Exspectâbantur etiam ab hîs Aduâtucôrum côpiae 5 atque erant in itinere.

Cum ex dêditîciis Belgis reliquîsque Gallis complûres Caesarem secûti ûna iter facerent, quîdam ex hîs nocte ad Nervios pervênêrunt. Hîs dêmônstrârunt inter singulas legiônes 5 impedîmentôrum mâgnum numerum intercêdere, neque esse quicquam negôti, cum prîma legio in castra vênisset, hanc sub sarcinis adorîri; qua pulsa futûrum ut reliquae legiônes contra cônsistere nôn audêrent. Nervii autem antîquitus, quo facilius fînitimôrum equitâtum impedîrent, 10 teneris arboribus incîsis atque înflexis, crêbrîsque in lâtitûdinem râmis ênâtis, et rubis sentibusque interiectis, effêcerant ut înstar mûri hae saepes mûnîmenta praebêrent, quo nôn modo nôn intrâri sed ne perspici quidem posset.

Loci nâtûra erat haec, quem locum nostri castris dêlêgerant. Collis ab summo acquâliter dêclîvis ad flûmen Sabim, quod supra nôminâvimus, vergêbat. Ab eo flûmine pari adclîvitâte collis nâscêbâtur, ab superiôre parte silvestris ut nôn facile intrôrsus perspici posset. Intra 5 eas silvas hostes in occulto sêse continêbant; in aperto loco secundum flûmen paucae statiônes equitum vidêbantur.

Caesar equitâtu praemîsso subsequêbâtur omnibus côpiis. Sed quod ad hostes adpropînquâbat, cônsuêtûdine sua sex legiônes expedîtas dûcêbat; post eas tôtîus exercitus impedîmenta conlocârat; inde duae legiônes, quae proxime cônscrîptae erant, tôtum âgmen claudêbant 5 praesidiôque impedîmentis erant. Equites nostri, cum funditôribus sagittâriîsque flûmen trânsgressi, cum hostium equitâtu proelium commîsêrunt. Illi se identidem in silvas ad suos recipiêbant âc rûrsus ex silva in nostros impetum faciêbant. Interim legiônes sex, quae 10 prîmae vênerant, opere dîmênso castra mûnîre coepêrunt. Ubi prîma impedîmenta nostri exercitus ab iis qui in silvis abditi latêbant vîsa sunt, subito omnibus côpiis prôvolâvêrunt impetumque in nostros equites fêcêrunt. Hîs facile pulsis âc prôturbâtis, incrêdibili celeritâte ad 15 flûmen dêcucurrêrunt, ut paene ûno tempore ad silvas et in flûmine et iam in manibus nostris hostes vidêrentur.

Caesari omnia ûno tempore erant agenda: vêxillum prôpônendum, sîgnum tuba dandum, ab opere revocandi mîlites, acies înstruenda, mîlites cohortandi, sîgnum dandum. Quârum rêrum mâgnam partem temporis brevitas et successus hostium impediêbat. Sed erat subsidio 5 scientia atque ûsus mîlitum, quod superiôribus proeliis exercitâti, nôn minus commode ipsi sibi praescrîbere quam ab aliis docêri poterant. Praeterea ab opere singulîsque legiônibus singulos lêgâtos Caesar discêdere vetuerat.

Caesar necessâriis rêbus imperâtis ad cohortandos mîlites dêcucurrit et ad legiônem decimam dêvênit. Mîlites nôn longiôre ôrâtiône cohortâtus quam uti suae prîstinae virtûtis memoriam retinêrent neu perturbârentur animo hostiumque impetum fortiter sustinêrent, 5 quod nôn longe hostes aberant, proeli committendi sîgnum dedit. Atque in alteram partem item cohortandi causa profectus pûgnantibus occurrit. Temporis tanta fuit exiguitas hostiumque tam parâtus ad dîmicandum animus, ut nôn modo ad însîgnia adcommodanda, sed 10 etiam ad galeas induendas scûtîsque tegimenta dêtrûdenda tempus dêfuerit. Quam in partem quisque ab opere câsu dêvênit quaeque prîma sîgna cônspêxit, ad haec cônstitit, ne in quaerendis suis pûgnandi tempus dîmitteret. +dêvenio+, _pervenio_. +prîstinus+: _vetus_, _antîquus_. +perturbo+, _commoveo_, 12. +sustineo+, _sustento_, 6. +occurro+, _inc{i}do_. +exiguitas+, _brevitas_. +adcommodo+, _apto_. +induo+, _indûco_. +dêtrûdo+, _dêtraho_. +câsu+, _fôrte_. +cônspicio+, _cônspicor_. +dîmitto+, _âmitto_. _All is confusion in the battle; the commander can do little._ 22. Înstrûcto exercitu magis ut loci nâtûra dêiectusque collis et necessitas temporis quam ut rei mîlitâris ratio atque ôrdo postulâbat, fîêbat ut aliae legiônes alia in parte hostibus resisterent; saepibus autem dênsissimis, ut ante dêmônstrâvimus, interiectis prôspectus impediêbâtur, 5 ut neque certa subsidia conlocâri, neque ab ûno omnia imperia administrâri possent.

Tum eos trânsîre cônantes însecûti, gladiis mâgnam partem eôrum 5 interfêcêrunt. Ipsi trânsîre flûmen nôn dubitâvêrunt et in locum inîquum prôgressi, hostes redintegrâto proelio in fugam côniêcêrunt. Item alia in parte dîversae duae legiônes, ûndecima et octâva, ex loco superiôre in ipsis flûminis rîpis proeliâbantur. At tôtis fere a frônte et 10 ab sinistra parte nûdâtis castris, omnes Nervii cônfertissimo âgmine, duce Boduôgnâto, qui summam imperi tenêbat, ad eum locum contendêrunt; quôrum pars aperto latere legiônes circumvenîre, pars summum castrôrum locum petere coepit. 15 +lassitûdo+, _dêfatîgâtio_. +cônfectus+, _dêfessus_. +compello+, _ago_. +redintegro+, _renovo_. +cônfertus+, _dênsus_. +summa+, _cûra_, 4. +contendo+, _propero_, 12. +peto+, _accurro_. _It is beginning to look very dark for the Romans._ 24. Eôdem tempore equites nostri levisque armâtûrae pedites, qui cum iis ûna fuerant, cum se in castra reciperent, hostibus occurrêbant âc rûrsus aliam in partem fugam petêbant; et câlônes, praedandi causa êgressi, cum respêxissent et hostes in nostris castris versâri 5 vîdissent, praecipites fugae sêse mandâbant. Simul eôrum qui cum impedîmentis veniêbant clâmor fremitusque oriêbâtur, aliîque aliam in partem perterriti ferêbantur. Quibus omnibus rêbus permôti sunt equites Trêveri, qui auxili causa ab cîvitâte ad Caesarem mîssi 10 vênerant. Ergo cum multitûdine hostium castra complêri, legiônes premi et paene circumventas tenêri, câlônes, equites, funditôres in omnes partes fugere vîdissent, dêspêrâtis nostris rêbus, domum contendêrunt atque Rômânos pulsos superâtôsque cîvitâti renûntiâvêrunt. 15 +armâtûra+, _arma_, 10. +me recipio+, _me cônfero_, 13. +occurro+, _inc{i}do_, 21. +êgredior+, _exeo_, 13. +versor+, _sum occupâtus_, 1. +mando+, _commendo_. +fremitus+, _strepitus_, 11. +orior+, _nâscor_, 4. +premo+, _urgeo_. +paene+, _fere_, 19. +pello+: _fugo_, _prôturbo_, 19. +supero+, _vinco_. _Will Cæsar's coolness and courage save his army?_ 25. Caesar ab decimae legiônis cohortâtiône ad dextrum cornu profectus suos urgêri et duodecimae legiônis cônfertos mîlites sibi ipsos ad pûgnam esse impedîmento vîdit. Quartae cohortis omnes centuriônes occîsi sunt et, sîgnifero interfecto, sîgnum est âmîssum. Reliquârum 5 cohortium omnes fere centuriônes aut vulnerâti aut occîsi sunt, in hîs prîmipîlus P. Sextius Baculus, fortissimus vir, multis gravibusque vulneribus cônfectus ut iam se sustinêre nôn posset. Hîs rêbus reliquos esse tardiôres vîdit Caesar et nônnullos dêserto proelio excêdere âc têla 10 vîtâre; hostes autem neque a fronte ex înferiôre loco subeuntes intermittere et ab utrôque latere înstâare, et rem esse in angusto, neque ûllum esse subsidium quod submitti posset. Tum vêro scûto ûni mîliti dêtracto, quod ipse eo sine scûto vênerat, in prîmam aciem prôcessit, 15 centuriônibusque nôminâtim appellâtis, reliquos cohortâtus mîlites sîgna înferre et manipulos laxâre iûssit, quo facilius gladiis ûti possent.

Quo facto, cum alius alii subsidium ferret, audâcius resistere âc fortius pûgnâre coepêrunt. Interim mîlites legiônum 5 duârum, quae in novissimo âgmine praesidio impedîmentis fuerant, proelio nûntiâto cursu incitâto in summo colle ab hostibus cônspiciêbantur; et T. Labiênus castris hostium potîtus decimam legiônem subsidio nostris mîsit.

At hostes etiam in extrêma 5 spe salûtis mâximam virtûtem praestitêrunt; nam cum prîmi eôrum cecidissent, proximi iacentibus comitibus însistêbant atque ex eôrum corporibus pûgnâbant; hîs dêiectis et coacervâtis cadâveribus, cêteri ut ex tumulo têla in nostros côniciêbant et pîla intercepta remittêbant: 10 ut iûdicâri dêbêret nôn nêquîquam tantae virtûtis homines ausos esse trânsîre lâtissimum flûmen, ascendere altissimas rîpas, subîre inîquissimum locum; quae facilia ex difficillimis animi mâgnitûdo redêgerat. +prôcumbo+, _prôcido_. +turpitûdo+: _îgnôminia_, _înfâmia_. +dêleo+, _exstinguo_. +extrêmus+, _ultimus_. +praesto+: _praebeo_, _ostento_. +iaceo+, _prôcumbo_. +coacervo+: _congero_, _côgo_. +cadâver+, _corpus_. +nêquîquam+, _frûstra_. +redigo+, _facio_. _Why slay the poor remnant?

Postea in commemoranda 5 cîvitâtis calamitâte, ex sexcentis ad tres senâtôres, ex hominum mîlibus LX vix ad quîngentos qui arma ferre possent, sêse redâctos esse dîxêrunt. Quôs Caesar ut in miseros âc supplices ûsus misericordia vidêrêtur, 10 dîligentissime cônservâvit suîsque fînibus atque oppidis ûti iûssit et fînitimis imperâvit ut ab iniûria et maleficio se suôsque prohibêrent. +prope+, _paene_, 19. +internecio+, _interitus_. +redigo+, _redûco_. +puerî+, _lîberi_, 13. +cônicio+, _dêpôno_, 16. +dêdo+, _permitto_, 15. +commemoro+, _nârro_. +fînitimus+, _vîcînus_, 2. _The Aduatuci prepare to make a desperate resistance._ 29.

Quod ex omnibus in circuitu partibus altissimas rûpes 5 dêspectûsque habêbat, sed ûna ex parte lêniter adclîvis aditus relinquêbâtur; quem locum duplici altissimo mûro mûnierant; tum mâgni ponderis saxa et praeacûtas trabes in mûro conlocâbant. Ipsi erant ex Cimbris Teutonîsque prôgnâti, qui, cum iter in prôvinciam nostram atque 10 Îtaliam facerent, custôdiam ex suis âc praesidium sex mîlia hominum relîquêrunt.

Ubi vîneis âctis aggere exstrûcto turrim 5 procul cônstitui vîdêrunt, prîmum inrîdêre ex mûro atque increpitâre vôcibus coepêrunt, quod tanta mâchinâtio ab tanto spatio înstruerêtur: quibusnam manibus aut quibus vîribus praesertim homines tantulae statûrae turrim tanti oneris in mûro sêse conlocâre cônfîderent? 10 +adventus+, _accessus_, 15. +crêber+, _frequens_, 1. +excursio+, _êruptio_. +cônstituo+, _pôno_. +inrîdeo+, _dêrîdeo_. +increpito+, _maledîco_. +tantulus+, _parvulus_. +onus+, _pondus_. _But soon they lose confidence and offer to surrender._ 31.

Ûnum petunt: si fôrte Caesar pro sua clêmentia âc mânsuêtûdine statuerit Aduâtucos esse cônservandos, ne eos armis dêspoliet.

Id quod in Nerviis fêci faciam fînitimîsque imperâbo ne quam iniûriam 5 dêditîciis populi Rômâni înferant." Re nûntiâta ad suos, quae imperârentur facere dîxêrunt. Armôrum tanta multitûdo de mûro in fossam quae erat ante oppidum iacta est, ut prope summam mûri aggerisque altitûdinem acervi eôrum adaequârent, et tamen circiter pars 10 tertia, ut postea perspectum est, cêlâta atque in oppido retenta est.

C. IULI CAESARIS DE BELLO GALLICO _LIBER SECUNDUS._ B.C. 57; A.U.C. 697. THE BELGIAN LEAGUE DEFEATED. 1. Cum esset Caesar in citeriore Gallia in hibernis, ita uti supra demonstravimus, crebri ad eum rumores adferebantur, litterisque item Labieni certior fiebat omnes Belgas, quam tertiam esse Galliae partem dixeramus, contra populum Romanum coniurare obsidesque inter se dare. Coniurandi has esse causas: primum quod vererentur ne omni pacata Gallia ad eos exercitus noster adduceretur; deinde quod ab nonnullis Gallis sollicitarentur,--partim qui, ut Germanos diutius in Gallia versari noluerant, ita populi Romani exercitum hiemare atque inveterascere in Gallia moleste ferebant; partim qui mobilitate et levitate animi novis imperiis studebant; ab nonnullis etiam, quod in Gallia a potentioribus atque iis qui ad conducendos homines facultates habebant, vulgo regna occupabantur, qui minus facile eam rem imperio nostro consequi poterant. [p. 23 l. 1-16] 2. His nuntiis litterisque commotus Caesar duas legiones in citeriore Gallia novas conscripsit, et inita aestate in interiorem Galliam qui deduceret Q. Pedium legatum misit. Ipse, cum primum pabuli copia esse inciperet, ad exercitum venit. Dat negotium Senonibus reliquisque Gallis, qui finitimi Belgis erant, uti ea quae apud eos gerantur cognoscant seque de his rebus certiorem faciant. Hi constanter omnes nuntiaverunt manus cogi, exercitum in unum locum conduci. Tum vero dubitandum non existimavit quin ad eos proficisceretur. Re frumentaria comparata castra movet diebusque circiter quindecim ad fines Belgarum pervenit. [p. 23 l. 17-20, p. 24 l. 1-8] 3. Eo cum de improviso celeriusque omni opinione venisset, Remi, qui proximi Galliae ex Belgis sunt, ad eum legatos Iccium et Andocumborium primos civitatis miserunt qui dicerent: 'Se suaque omnia in fidem atque in potestatem populi Romani permittere, neque se cum Belgis reliquis consensisse neque contra populum Romanum coniurasse, paratosque esse et obsides dare et imperata facere et oppidis recipere et frumento ceterisque rebus iuvare; reliquos omnes Belgas in armis esse, Germanosque qui cis Rhenum incolant sese cum his coniunxisse, tantumque esse eorum omnium furorem ut ne Suessiones quidem, fratres consanguineosque suos, qui eodem iure et isdem legibus utantur, unum imperium unumque magistratum cum ipsis habeant, deterrere potuerint quin cum his consentirent.' [p. 24 l. 9-23] 4. Cum ab his quaereret quae civitates quantaeque in armis essent et quid in bello possent, sic reperiebat: plerosque Belgas esse ortos ab Germanis Rhenumque antiquitus traductos propter loci fertilitatem ibi consedisse Gallosque qui ea loca incolerent expulisse, solosque esse qui patrum nostrorum memoria, omni Gallia vexata, Teutonos Cimbrosque intra fines suos ingredi prohibuerint; qua ex re fieri uti earum rerum memoria magnam sibi auctoritatem magnosque spiritus in re militari sumerent. De numero eorum omni se habere explorata Remi dicebant, proptera quod propinquitatibus adfinitatibusque coniuncti, quantam quisque multitudinem in communi Belgarum concilio ad id bellum pollicitus sit cognoverint. Plurimuni inter eos Bellovacos et virtute et auctoritate et hominum numero valere: hos posse conficere armata milia centum, pollicitos ex eo numero electa sexaginta, totiusque belli imperium sibi postulare. Suessiones suos esse finitimos: latissimos feracissimosque agros possidere. Apud eos fuisse regem nostra etiam memoria Divitiacum, totius Galliae potentissimum, qui cum magnae partis harum regionum tum etiam Britanniae imperium obtinuerit: nunc esse regem Galbam; ad hunc propter iustitiam prudentiamque suam totius belli summam omnium voluntate deferri: oppida habere numero XII, polliceri milia armata quinquaginta; totidem Nervios, qui maxime feri inter ipsos habeantur, longissimeque absint; quindecim milia Atrebates, Ambianos decem milia, Moriuos XXV milia, Menapios VII milia; Caletos X milia; Velocasses et Veromanduos totidem; Aduatucos decem et novem milia; Condrusos, Eburones, Caeroesos, Paemanos, qui uno nomine Germani appellantur, arbitrari ad XL milia. [p. 24 l. 24-32, p. 25 l. 1-23] 5. Caesar Remos cohortatus liberaliterque oratione prosecutus omnem senatum ad se convenire principumque liberos obsides ad se adduci iussit. Quae omnia ab his diligenter ad diem facta sunt. Ipse Divitiacum Aeduum magno opere cohortatus docet quanto opere rei publicae communisque salutis intersit man us hostium distineri, ne cum tanta multitudine uno tempore confligendum sit. Id fieri posse, si suas copias Aedui in fines Bellovacorum introduxeriut et eorum agros populari coeperint. His mandatis eum ab se dimittit. Postquam omnes Belgarum copias in unum locum coactas ad se venire vidit neque iam longe abesse ab iis quos miserat exploratoribus et ab Remis cognovit, flumen Axonam, quod est in extremis Remorum finibus, exercitum traducere maturavit atque ibi castra posuit. Quae res et latus unum castrorum ripis fluminis muniebat et post eum quae essent tuta ab hostibus reddebat, et commeatus ab Remis reliquisque civitatibus ut sine periculo ad eum portari posset efficiebat. In eo flumine pons erat. Ibi praesidium ponit et in altera parte fluminis Q. Titurium Sabinum legatum cum sex cohortibus relinquit. Castra in altitudinem pedum XII vallo fossaque duodeviginti pedum munire iubet. [p. 25 l. 24-32, p. 26 l. 1-14] 6. Ab his castris oppidum Remorum nomine Bibrax aberat milia passuum octo. Id ex itinere magno impetu Belgae oppugnare coeperunt. Aegre eo die sustentatum est. Gallorum eadem atque Belgarum oppugnatio est haec. Ubi circumiecta multitudine hominum totis moenibus undique in murum lapides iaci coepti sunt, murusque defensoribus nudatus est, testudine facta portas succedunt murumque subruunt. Quod tum facile fiebat. Nam cum tanta multitudo lapides ac tela conicerent, in muro consistendi potestas erat nulli. Cum finem oppugnandi nox fecisset, Iccius Remus, summa nobilitate et gratia inter suos, qui tum oppido praefuerat, unus ex iis qui legati de pace ad Caesarem venerant, nuntium ad eum mittit: nisi subsidium sibi submittatur, sese diutius sustinere non posse. [p. 26 l. 15-29] 7. Eo de media nocte Caesar isdem ducibus usus qui nuntii ab Iccio venerant, Numidas et Cretas sagittarios et funditores Baleares subsidio oppidanis mittit; quorum adventu et Remis cum spe defensionis studium propugnandi accessit, et hostibus eadem de causa spes potiundi oppidi discessit. Itaque paulisper apud oppidum morati agrosque Remorum depopulati, omnibus vicis aedificiisque quos adire potuerant incensis, ad castra Caesaris omnibus copiis contenderunt et ab milibus passuum minus duobus castra posuerunt; quae castra, ut fumo atque ignibus significabatur, amplius milibus passuum octo in latitudinem patebant. [p. 26 l. 30-32, p. 27 l. 1-9] 8. Caesar primo et propter multitudinem hostium et propter eximiam opinionem virtutis proelio supersedere statuit; cotidie tamen equestribus proeliis quid hostis virtute posset et quid nostri auderent periclitabatur. Ubi nostros non esse inferiores intellexit, loco pro castris ad aciem instruendam natura opportuno atque idoneo--quod is collis, ubi castra posita erant, paululum ex planitie editus tantum adversus in latitudinem patebat quantum loci acies instructa occupare poterat, atque ex utraque parte lateris deiectus habebat et in frontem leniter fastigatus paulatim ad planitiem redibat--ab utroque latere eius collis transversam fossam obduxit circiter passuum quadringentorum et ad extremas fossas castella constituit ibique tormenta conlocavit, ne, cum aciem instruxisset, hostes, quod tantum multitudine poterant, ab lateribus pugnantes suos circumvenire possent. Hoc facto duabus legionibus quas proxime conscripserat in castris relictis, ut, si quo opus esset, subsidio duci possent, reliquas sex legiones pro castris in acie constituit. Hostes item suas copias ex castris eductas instruxerant. [p. 27 l. 10-30] 9. Palus erat non magna inter nostrum atque hostium exercitum. Hanc si nostri transirent hostes exspectabant; nostri autem, si ab illis initium transeundi fieret, ut impeditos adgrederentur, parati in armis erant. Interim proelio equestri inter duas acies contendebatur. Ubi neutri transeundi initium faciunt, secundiore equitum proelio nostris Caesar suos in castra reduxit. Hostes protinus ex eo loco ad flumen Axonam contenderunt, quod esse post nostra castra demonstratum est. Ibi vadis repertis partem suarum copiarum traducere conati sunt eo consilio, ut, si possent, castellum cui praeerat Q. Titurius legatus expugnarent pontemque interscinderent; si minus potuissent, agros Remorum popularentur, qui magno nobis usui ad bellum gerendum erant, commeatuque nostros prohiberent. [p. 27 l. 31-32, p. 28 l. 1-13] 10. Caesar certior factus ab Titurio omnem equitatum et levis armaturae Numidas, funditores sagittariosque pontem traducit atque ad eos contendit. Acriter in eo loco pugnatum est. Hostes impeditos nostri in flumine adgressi magnum eorum numerum occiderunt: per eorum corpora reliquos audacissime transire conantes multitudine telorum reppulerunt; primos qui transierant equitatu circumventos interfecerunt. Hostes, ubi et de expugnando oppido et de flumine transeundo spem se fefellisse intellexerunt neque nostros in locum iniquiorem progredi pugnandi causa viderunt, atque ipsos res frumentaria deficere coepit, concilio convocato constituerunt optimum esse domum suam quemque reverti, et, quorum in fines primum Romani exercitum introduxissent, ad eos defendendos undique convenirent, ut potius in suis quam in alienis finibus decertarent et domesticis copiis rei frumentariae uterentur. Ad eam sententiam cum reliquis causis haec quoque ratio eos deduxit, quod Divitiacum atque Aeduos finibus Bellovacorum adpropinquare cognoverant. His persuaderi ut diutis morarentur neque suis auxilium ferrent non poterat. [p. 28 l. 14-32, p. 29 l. 1-2] 11. Ea re constituta, secunda vigilia magno cum strepitu ac tumultu castris egressi, nullo certo ordine neque imperio, cum sibi quisque primum itineris locum peteret et domum pervenire properaret, fecerunt ut consimilis fugae profectio videretur. Hac re statim Caesar per speculatores cognita insidias veritus, quod qua de causa discederent nondum perspexerat, exercitum equitatumque castris continuit. Prima luce confirmata re ab exploratoribus omnem equitatum qui novissimum agmen moraretur praemisit. His Q. Pedium et L. Aurunculeium Cottam legatos praefecit; T. Labienum legatum cum legionibus tribus subsequi iussit. Hi novissimos adorti et multa milia passuum prosecuti magnam multitudinem eorum fugientium conciderunt, cum ab extremo agmine ad quos ventum erat consisterent fortiterque impetum nostrorum militum sustinerent; priores, quod abesse a periculo viderentur neque ulla necessitate neque imperio continerentur, exaudito clamore perturbatis ordinibus omnes in fuga sibi praesidium ponerent. Ita sine ullo periculo tantam eorum multitudinem nostri interfecerunt quantum fuit diei spatium, sub occasumque solis destiterunt, seque in castra, ut erat imperatum, receperunt. [p. 29 l. 3-25] 12. Postridie eius diei Caesar, priusquam se hostes ex terrore ac fuga reciperent, in fines Suessionum, qui proximi Remis erant, exercitum duxit et magno itinere confecto ad oppidum Noviodunum contendit. Id ex itinere oppugnare conatus, quod vacuum ab defensoribus esse audiebat, propter latitudinem fossae murique altitudinem paucis defendentibus expugnare non potuit. Castris munitis vineas agere quaeque ad oppugnandum usui erant comparare coepit. Interim omnis ex fuga Suessionum multitudo in oppidum proxima nocte convenit. Celeriter vineis ad oppidum actis, aggere iacto turribusque constitutis, magnitudine operum, quae neque viderant ante Galli neque audierant, et celeritate Romanorum permoti, legatos ad Caesarem de deditione mittunt et petentibus Remis ut conservarentur impetrant. [p. 29 l. 26-32, p. 30 l. 1-8] 13. Caesar obsidibus acceptis primis civitatis atque ipsius Galbae regis duobus filiis, armisque omnibus ex oppido traditis, in deditionem Suessiones accepit exercitumque in Bellovacos ducit. Qui cum se suaque omnia in oppidum Bratuspantium contulissent, atque ab eo oppido Caesar cum exercitu circiter milia passuum quinque abesset, omnes maiores natu ex oppido egressi manus ad Caesarem tendere et voce significare coeperunt sese in eius fidem ac potestatem venire neque contra populum Romanum armis contendere. Item, cum ad oppidum accessisset castraque ibi poneret, pueri mulieresque ex muro passis manibus suo more pacem ab Romanis petierunt. [p. 30 l. 9-20] 14. Pro his Divitiacus--nam post discessum Belgarum dimissis Aeduorum copiis ad eum reverterat--facit verba: Bellovacos omni tempore in fide atque amicitia civitatis Aeduae fuisse: impulsos a suis principibus, qui dicerent Aeduos ab Caesare in servitutem redactos omnes indignitates contumeliasque perferre, et ab Aeduis defecisse et populo Romano bellum intulisse. Qui eius consili principes fuissent, quod intellegerent quantam calamitatem civitati intulissent, in Britanniam profugisse. Petere non solum Bellovacos sed etiam pro his Aeduos ut sua clementia ac mansuetudine in eos utatur. Quod si fecerit, Aeduorum auctoritatem apud omnes Belgas amplificaturum, quorum auxiliis atque opibus, si qua bella inciderint, sustentare consuerint. [p. 30 l. 21-32, p. 31 l. 1-2] 15. Caesar honoris Divitiaci atque Aeduorum causa sese eos in fidem recepturum et conservaturum dixit; quod erat civitas magna inter Belgas auctoritate atque hominum multitudine praestabat, sexcentos obsides poposcit. His traditis omnibusque armis ex oppido conlatis, ab eo loco in fines Ambianorum pervenit, qui se suaque omnia sine mora dediderunt. Eorum fines Nervii attingebant; quorum de natura moribusque Caesar cum quaereret, sic reperiebat: Nullum aditum esse ad eos mercatoribus; nihil pati vini reliquarumque rerum inferri, quod iis rebus relanguescere animos eorum et remitti virtutem existimarent: esse homines feros magnaeque virtutis; increpitare atque incusare reliquos Belgas qui se populo Romano dedidissent patriamque virtutem proiecissent; confirmare sese neque legatos missuros neque ullam condicionem pacis accepturos. [p. 31 l. 3-18] 16. Cum per eorum fines triduum iter fecisset, inveniebat ex captivis Sabim flumen ab castris suis non amplius milia passuum X abesse: trans id flumen omnes Nervios consedisse adventumque ibi Romanorum exspectare una cum Atrebatis et Veromanduis finitimis suis, nam his utrisque persuaserant uti eandem belli fortunam experirentur; exspectari etiam ab his Aduatucorum copias atque esse in itinere; mulieres quique per aetatem ad pugnam inutiles viderentur in eum locum coniecisse, quo propter paludes exercitui aditus non esset. [p. 31 l. 19-28] 17. His rebus cognitis exploratores centurionesque praemittit qui locum idoneum castris deligant. Cum ex dediticiis Belgis reliquisque Gallis complures Caesarem secuti una iter facerent, quidam ex his, ut postea ex captivis cognitum est, eorum dierum consuetudine itineris nostri exercitus perspecta, nocte ad Nervios pervenerunt atque his demonstrarunt inter singulas legiones impedimentorum magnum numerum intercedere, neque esse quicquam negoti, cum prima legio in castra venisset, reliquaeque legiones magnum spatium abessent, hanc sub sarcinis adoriri; qua pulsa impedimentisque direptis futurum ut reliquae contra consistere non auderent. Adiuvabat etiam eorum consilium qui rem deferebant, quod Nervii antiquitus, cum equitatu nihil possent (neque enim ad hoc tempus ei rei student, sed quicquid possunt, pedestribus valent copiis) quo facilius finitimorum equitatum, si praedandi causa ad eos venissent, impedirent, teneris arboribus incisis atque inflexis, crebrisque in latitudinem ramis enatis, et rubis sentibusque interiectis, effecerant ut instar muri hae saepes munimenta praeberent, quo non modo non intrari sed ne perspici quidem posset. His rebus cum iter agminis nostri impediretur, non omittendum sibi consilium Nervii existimaverunt. [p. 31 l. 29-32, p. 32 l. 1-20] 18. Loci natura erat haec, quem locum nostri castris delegerant. Collis ab summo aequaliter declivis ad flumen Sabim, quod supra nominavimus, vergebat. Ab eo flumine pari adclivitate collis nascebatur adversus huic et contrarius, passus circiter ducentos infimus apertus, ab superiore parte silvestris ut non facile introrsus perspici posset. Intra eas silvas hostes in occulto sese continebant; in aperto loco secundum flumen paucae stationes equitum videbantur. Fluminis erat altitudo pedum circiter trium. [p. 32 l. 21-30] 19. Caesar equitatu praemisso subsequebatur omnibus copiis; sed ratio ordoque agminis aliter se habebat ac Belgae ad Nervios detulerant. Nam quod ad hostes adpropinquabat, consuetudine sua Caesar sex legiones expeditas ducebat; post eas totius exercitus impedimenta conlocarat; inde duae legiones quae proxime conscriptae erant totum agmen claudebant praesidioque impedimentis erant. Equites nostri, cum funditoribus sagittariisque flumen transgressi, cum hostium equitatu proelium commiserunt. Cum se illi identidem in silvas ad suos reciperent ac rursus ex silva in nostros impetum facerent, neque nostri longius quam quem ad finem porrecta loca aperta pertinebant cedentes insequi auderent, interim legiones sex, quae primae venerant, opere dimenso castra munire coeperunt. Ubi prima impedimenta nostri exercitus ab iis qui in silvis abditi latebant visa sunt, quod tempus inter eos committendi proeli convenerat, ut intra silvas aciem ordinesque constituerant atque ipsi sese confirmaverant, subito omnibus copiis provolaverunt impetumque in nostros equites fecerunt. His facile pulsis ac proturbatis, incredibili celeritate ad flumen decucurrerunt, ut paene uno tempore et ad silvas et in flumine et iam in manibus nostris hostes viderentur. Eadem autem celeritate adverso colle ad nostra castra atque eos qui in opere occupati erant contenderunt. [p. 32 l. 31-32, p. 33 l. 1-23] 20. Caesari omnia uno tempore erant agenda: vexillum proponendum, quod erat insigne cum ad arma concurri oporteret, signum tuba dandum, ab opere revocandi milites, qui paulo longius aggeris petendi causa processerant arcessendi, acies instruenda, milites cohortandi, signum dandum. Quarum rerum magnam partem temporis brevitas et successus hostium impediebat. His difficultatibus duae res erant subsidio--scientia atque usus militum, quod superioribus proeliis exercitati, quid fieri oporteret non minus commode ipsi sibi praescribere quam ab aliis doceri poterant; et quod ab opere singulisque legionibus singulos legatos Caesar discedere nisi munitis castris vetuerat. Hi propter propinquitatem et celeritatem hostium nihil iam Caesaris imperium exspectabant, sed per se quae videbantur administrabant. [p. 33 l. 24-32, p. 34 l. 1-6] 21. Caesar necessariis rebus imperatis ad cohortandos milites quam in partem fors obtulit decucurrit et ad legionem decimam devenit. Milites non longiore oratione cohortatus quam uti suae pristinae virtutis memoriam retinerent neu perturbarentur animo hostiumque impetum fortiter sustinerent, quod non longius hostes aberant quam quo telum adici posset, proeli committendi signum dedit. Atque in alteram partem item cohortandi causa profectus pugnantibus occurrit. Temporis tanta fuit exiguitas hostiumque tam paratus ad dimicandum animus, ut non modo ad insignia adcommodanda, sed etiam ad galeas induendas scutisque tegimenta detrudenda tempus defuerit. Quam quisque ab opere in partem casu devenit quaeque prima signa conspexit, ad haec constitit, ne in quaerendis suis pugnandi tempus dimitteret. [p. 34 l. 7-22] 22. Instructo exercitu magis ut loci natura deiectusque collis et necessitas temporis quam ut rei militaris ratio atque ordo postulabat, cum diversis legionibus aliae alia in parte hostibus resisterent, saepibusque densissimis, ut ante demonstravimus, interiectis prospectus impediretur, neque certa subsidia conlocari, neque quid in quaque parte opus esset provideri, neque ab uno omnia imperia administrari poterant. Itaque in tanta rerum iniquitate, fortunae quoque eventus varii sequebantur. [p. 34 l. 23-31] 23. Legionis nonae et decimae milites, ut in sinistra parte acie constiterant, pilis emissis, cursu ac lassitudine exanimatos vulneribusque confectos Atrebates--nam his ea pars obvenerat--celeriter ex loco superiore in flumen compulerunt et transire conantes insecuti gladiis magnam partem eorum impeditam interfecerunt. Ipsi transire flumen non dubitaverunt, et in locum iniquum progressi, rursus resistentes hostes redintegrato proelio in fugam coniecerunt. Item alia in parte diversae duae legiones, undecima et octava, profligatis Veromanduis, quibuscum erant congressi, ex loco superiore in ipsis fluminis ripis proeliabantur. At totis fere a fronte et ab sinistra parte nudatis castris, cum in dextro cornu legio duodecima et non magno ab ea intervallo septima constitisset, omnes Nervii confertissimo agmine duce Boduognato qui summam imperi tenebat, ad eum locum contenderunt; quorum pars aperto latere legiones circumvenire, pars summum castrorum locum petere coepit. [p. 35 l. 1-18] 24. Eodem tempore equites nostri levisque armaturae pedites, qui cum iis una fuerant, quos primo hostium impetu pulsos dixeram, cum se in castra reciperent, adversis hostibus occurrebant ac rursus aliam in partem fugam petebant; et calones, qui ab decumana porta ac summo iugo collis nostros victores flumen transisse conspexerant, praedandi causa egressi, cum respexissent et hostes in nostris castris versari vidissent, praecipites fugae sese mandabant. Simul eorum qui cum impedimentis veniebant clamor fremitusque oriebatur, aliique aliam in partem perterriti ferebantur. Quibus omnibus rebus permoti equites Treveri, quorum inter Gallos virtutis opinio est singularis, qui auxili causa ab civitate ad Caesarem missi venerant, cum multitudine hostium castra compleri, legiones premi et paene circumventas teneri, calones, equites, funditores, Numidas, diversos dissipatosque in omnes partes fugere vidissent, desperatis nostris rebus domum contenderunt; Romanos pulsos superatosque, castris impedimentisque eorum hostes potitos civitati renuntiaverunt. [p. 35 l. 19-32, p. 36 l. 1-6] 25. Caesar ab decimae legionis cohortatione ad dextrum cornu profectus, ubi suos urgeri signisque in unum locum conlatis duodecimae legionis confertos milites sibi ipsos ad pugnam esse impedimento vidit--quartae cohortis omnibus centurionibus occisis signiferoque interfecto, signo amisso, reliquarum cohortium omnibus fere centurionibus aut vulneratis aut occisis, in his primipilo P. Sextio Baculo, fortissimo viro, multis gravibusque vulneribus confecto ut iam se sustinere non posset, reliquos esse tardiores, et nonnullos ab novissimis deserto proelio excedere ac tela vitare, hostes neque a fronte ex inferiore loco subeuntes intermittere et ab utroque latere instare, et rem esse in angusto vidit, neque ullum esse subsidium quod submitti posset--scuto ab novissimis uni militi detracto, quod ipse eo sine scuto venerat, in primam aciem processit centurionibusque nominatim appellatis reliquos cohortatus milites signa inferre et manipulos laxare iussit, quo facilius gladiis uti possent. Cuius adventu spe inlata militibus ac redintegrato animo, cum pro se quisque in conspectu imperatoris etiam in extremis suis rebus operam navare cuperet, paulum hostium impetus tardatus est. [p. 36 l. 7-28] 26. Caesar cum septimam legionem, quae iuxta constiterat, item urgeri ab hoste vidisset, tribunes militum monuit ut paulatim sese legiones coniungerent et conversa signa in hostes inferrent. Quo facto, cum alius alii subsidium ferret, neque timerent ne aversi ab hoste circumvenirentur, audacius resistere ac fortius pugnare coeperunt. Interim milites legionum duarum, quae in novissimo agmine praesidio impedimentis fuerant, proelio nuntiato cursu incitato in summo colle ab hostibus conspiciebantur; et T. Labienus castris hostium potitus et ex loco superiore quae res in nostris castris gererentur conspicatus decimam legionem subsidio nostris misit. Qui cum ex equitum et calonum fuga, quo in loco res esset, quantoque in periculo et castra et legiones et imperator versaretur, cognovissent, nihil ad celeritatem sibi reliqui fecerunt. [p. 36 l. 29-32, p. 37 l. 1-12] 27. Horum adventu tanta rerum commutatio est facta ut nostri, etiam qui vulneribus confecti procubuissent, scutis innixi proelium redintegrarent; tum calones perterritos hostes conspicati etiam inermes armatis occurrerent; equites vero, ut turpitudinem fugae virtute delerent, omnibus in locis pugnae se legionariis militibus praeferrent. At hostes etiam in extrema spe salutis tantam virtutem praestiterunt ut, cum primi eorum cecidissent, proximi iacentibus insisterent atque ex eorum corporibus pugnarent; his deiectis et coacervatis cadaveribus, qui superessent ut ex tumulo tela in nostros conicerent et pila intercepta remitterent: ut non nequiquam tantae virtutis homines indicari deberet ausos esse transire latissimum flumen, ascendere altissimas ripas, subire iniquissimum locum; quae facilia ex difficillimis animi magnitudo redegerat. [p. 37 l. 13-28] 28. Hoc proelio facto et prope ad internecionem gente ac nomine Nerviorum redacto maiores natu, quos una cum pueris mulieribusque in aestuaria ac paludes coniectos dixeramus, hac pugna nuntiata, cum victoribus nihil impeditum, victis nihil tutum arbitrarentur, omnium qui supererant consensu legatos ad Caesarem miserunt seque ei dediderunt; et in commemoranda civitatis calamitate ex sexcentis ad tres senatores, ex hominum milibus LX vix ad quingentos qui arma ferre possent sese redactos esse dixerunt. Quos Caesar, ut in miseros ac supplices usus misericordia videretur, diligentissime conservavit suisque finibus atque oppidis uti iussit, et finitimis imperavit ut ab iniuria et maleficio se suosque prohiberent. [p. 37 l. 29-32, p. 38 l. 1-9] 29. Aduatuci, de quibus supra scripsimus, cum omnibus copiis auxilio Nerviis venirent, hac pugna nuntiata ex itinere domum reverterunt; cunctis oppidis castellisque desertis sua omnia in unum oppidum egregie natura munitum contulerunt. Quod cum ex omnibus in circuitu partibus altissimas rapes despectusque haberet, una ex parte leniter adclivis aditus in latitudinem non amplius ducentorum pedum relinquebatur; quem locum duplici altissimo muro munierant, tum magni ponderis saxa et praeacutas trabes in muro conlocabant. Ipsi erant ex Cimbris Teutonisque prognati, qui, cum iter in provinciam nostram atque Italiam facerent, iis impedimentis, quae secum agere ac portare non poterant, citra flumen Rhenum depositis custodiam ex suis ac praesidium sex milia hominum una reliquerunt. Hi post eorum obitum multos annos a finitimis exagitati, cum alias bellum inferrent, alias inlatum defenderent, consensu eorum omnium pace facta hunc sibi domicilio locum delegerunt. [p. 38 l. 10-27] 30. Ac primo adventu exercitus nostri crebras ex oppido excursiones faciebant parvulisque proeliis cum nostris contendebant; postea vallo pedum XII in circuitu XV milium crebrisque castellis circummuniti oppido sese continebant. Ubi vineis actis aggere exstructo turrim procul constitui viderunt, primum inridere ex muro atque increpitare vocibus, quod tanta machinatio ab tanto spatio instrueretur: quibusnam manibus aut quibus viribus praesertim homines tantulae staturae--nam plerumque hominibus Gallis prae magnitudine corporum suorum brevitas nostra contemptui est--tanti oneris turrim in muro sese conlocare confiderent? [p. 38 l. 28-32, p. 39 l. 1-7] 31. Ubi vero moveri et adpropinquare moenibus viderunt, nova atque inusitata specie commoti legates ad Caesarem de pace miserunt, qui ad hunc modum locuti: 'Non existimare Romanos sine ope divina bellum gerere, qui tantae altitudinis machinationes tanta celeritate promovere possent; se suaque omnia eorum potestati permittere' dixerunt. 'Unum petere ac deprecari: si forte pro sua clementia ac mansuetudine, quam ipsi ab aliis audirent, statuisset Aduatucos esse conservandos, ne se armis despoliaret. Sibi omnes fere finitimos esse inimicos ac suae virtuti invidere; a quibus se defendere traditis armis non possent. Sibi praestare, si in eum casum deducerentur, quamvis fortunam a populo Romano pati, quam ab his per cruciatum interfici, inter quos dominari consuessent.' [p. 39 l. 8-22] 32. Ad haec Caesar respondit: 'Se magis consuetudine sua quam merito eorum civitatem conservaturum, si prius quam murum aries attigisset se dedidissent; sed deditionis nullam esse condicionem nisi armis traditis. Se id quod in Nerviis fecisset facturum finitimisque imperaturum, ne quam dediticiis populi Romani iniuriam inferrent.' Re nuntiata ad suos, quae imperarentur facere dixerunt. Armorum magna multitudine de muro in fossam quae erat ante oppidum iacta sic ut prope summam muri aggerisque altitudinem acervi armorum adaequarent, et tamen circiter parte tertia, ut postea perspectum est, celata atque in oppido retenta, portis patefactis eo die pace sunt usi. [p. 39 l. 23-32, p. 40 l. 1-3] 33. Sub vesperum Caesar portas claudi militesque ex oppido exire iussit, ne quam noctu oppidani ab militibus iniuriam acciperent. Illi ante inito, ut intellectum est, consilio, quod deditione facta nostros praesidia deducturos aut denique indiligentius servaturos crediderant--partim cum iis quae retinuerant et celaverant armis, partim scutis ex cortice factis aut viminibus intextis, quae subito, ut temporis exiguitas postulabat, pellibus induxerant--tertia vigilia, qua minime arduus ad nostras munitiones ascensus videbatur, omnibus copiis repentino ex oppido eruptionem fecerunt. Celeriter, ut ante Caesar imperarat, ignibus significatione facta ex proximis castellis eo concursum est, pugnatumque ab hostibus ita acriter est ut a viris fortibus in extrema spe salutis iniquo loco contra eos qui ex vallo turribusque tela iacerent pugnari debuit, cum in una virtute omnis spes salutis consisteret. Occisis ad hominum milibus quattuor reliqui in oppidum reiecti sunt. Postridie eius diei refractis portis, cum iam defenderet nemo, atque intromissis militibus nostris sectionem eius oppidi universam Caesar vendidit. Ab iis qui emerant capitum numerus ad eum relatus est milium quinquaginta trium. [p. 40 l. 4-25] 34. Eodem tempore a P. Crasso, quem cum legione una miserat ad Venetos, Unellos, Osismos, Curiosolitas, Esuvios, Aulercos, Redones, quae sunt maritimae civitates Oceanumque attingunt, certior factus est omnes eas civitates in dicionem potestatemque populi Romani esse redactas. [p. 40 l. 26-31] 35. His rebus gestis omni Gallia pacata, tanta huius belli ad barbaros opinio perlata est uti ab iis nationibus, quae trans Rhenum incolerent mitterentur legati ad Caesarem, qui se obsides daturas, imperata facturas pollicerentur. Quas legationes Caesar, quod in Italiam Illyricumque properabat, inita proxima aestate ad se reverti iussit. Ipse in Carnutes, Andes Turonesque, quae civitates propinquae his locis erant ubi bellum gesserat, legionibus in hibernacula deductis, in Italiam profectus est. Ob easque res ex litteris Caesaris dies quindecim supplicatio decreta est, quod ante id tempus accidit nulli. [p. 41 l. 1-11] NOTES. INTRODUCTORY NOTE.--To translate Latin into English is to express the meaning of the Latin in English words and in English idiom. But the meaning must be discovered before it can be expressed. Discovering the sense is, therefore, a process preparatory to translation, but yet measurably distinct from it. For discovering the meaning, the golden rule is, _Take words and clauses in the order in which they stand_. If the first chapter of this book were rendered into English words exactly in the Latin order, the thought would be readily apprehended by any one quite unacquainted with Latin. Such a word for word rendering, mental or oral, is for the beginner a necessary preliminary to translation, but, I repeat, must not be confounded with translation. For that, the golden rule is, _Express the thought in pure English, without admixture of Latin idiom_. Notes under the heading CHAP. refer to the simplified text; those that follow, under the heading PAGE, supplement the former and refer to the unchanged text. The grammatical references are to the Latin Grammars of Allen & Greenough and Harkness. [Transcriber's Note: In the printed text, the word "line" recurs at the beginning of each page. For this e-text, it is repeated at the beginning of each chapter instead. Page references are included for completeness.] CHAP. 1, line 2. +certior fîêbat+: _he was made more certain_ = _he was informed_. +fîêbat+: the passive of +facio+. Review the forms. 142; H. 294. 4. +Coniûrandi+: pronounce the _i_ of the second syllable like _y_. 5. +verêbantur+: the subject is +Belgae+, understood; supply the same subject for +sollicitâbantur+. +ad se+: refers to the subject of +verêbantur+. 6. +Germânos+: subject-accusative of +versâri+; _that the Germans should remain_. 8. +exercitum+: subject-accusative of +hiemâre+ and +inveterâscere+. +inveterâscere+: _get a foothold_; but what is its primary meaning from its derivation? 10. +imperiis+: 227 e, 3; H. 385. 11. +iis+: supply mentally +ab+ before it. 13. +qui+: _and these_, referring to +potentiôres+, etc. +eam rem+: read again the preceding sentence, and you will see to what +eam rem+ refers. +imperio nostro+: _under our_ (i.e. Roman) _rule_. The ablative implies condition, and the meaning is, _if we should get the sovereignty_. 255, d, 4; H. 431, 2, (3). PAGE 23, 1. +ita uti+: _as_. 3. +Labiêni+: Cæsar's lieutenant was now in the country of the Sequani. See a map of +Gallia+. 4. +quam+: _whose country_. We might expect +quos+ referring to +Belgas+, but the relative is made to agree with the predicate noun +partem+. 6. +has esse causas+: depending on +rûmôres adferêbantur+, like +Belgas ... coniûrâre+ and +obsides ... dare+. 272; H. 7. +omni ... Gallia+: all except their country. +pâcâta+: the Romans, with cruel humor, called a country "pacified" when they had enslaved it. 8. +partim qui+: _some of whom_. 9. +ut ... ita+: _as ... so_. 11. +partim qui+: _others of whom_. 12. +ab nônnûllis etiam+: these, then, are the third class by whom it is said, +Belgae sollicitâbantur+: first, the conservative and patriotic; second, the restless and dissatisfied; third, the selfish and ambitious. CHAP. 2, line 2. +interiôrem Galliam+: _the interior of Gaul_; that is, Gaul beyond the Alps. Refer constantly to a map. 3. +qui ... dêdûceret+: +qui+ refers to +Q. Pedium+, and the clause +qui ... dêdûceret+ denotes purpose, _to lead_. 4. +Ipse+: supply +Caesar+. 6. +Ea+ = +eas res+, as shown by +rêbus+ following. 8. +manus côgi+: _that parties of men were gathering_. The construction is the same as +Belgas ... coniûrâre+, in chap. 1. 9. +condûci+: _was mustering_; a very different meaning in chap. 1. +quîn ... proficîscerêtur+: _to march_. What literally? PAGE 23, 18. +inita aestâte+: _when summer had begun_ = _at the beginning of summer_; marks the time of +dêdûceret+, not of +mîsit+. PAGE 24, 1. +Dat negôtium+: _he charges_. What literally? 2. +uti+ (same as +ut+) ... +côgnôscant+: _to find out_; the clause depends on +dat negôtium+. 3. +se+: refers to Caesar. +certiôrem faciant+: compare the passive form in chap. 1. 5. +dubitandum+: in full the sentence would be, +Caesar dubitandum esse sibi nôn exîstimâvit+; and the word for word rendering, _Cæsar did not think an-obligation-of-hesitating to be to himself_. Translate, _he ought to hesitate_. CHAP. 3, line 1. +Eo+: that is, +ad fînes Belgârum+. See the end of chap. 2. 3. +se ... permittere+: here +se+ is the subject-accusative of +permittere+. +in fidem+: _to the protection_. 6. +Caesaris imperâta facere+: _to do what Cæsar required_. Literally what? 7. +oppidis recipere+: in meaning = +in oppida recipere+. +cêteris+: not _other_, but _all other_. Their submission is abject. 9. +sêse+: not different from +se+. 10. +Suessiônes+: the object of +dêterrêre+. 12. +iûre+: _constitution_. +îsdem+: oftener written +iîsdem+, 101, c. PAGE 24, 9. +omni opîniône+: _than any one could expect_. 247, b; H. 417. 10. +ex Belgis+ = +Belgârum+, or +inter Belgas+. 12. +qui dîcerent+: compare +qui dêdûceret+, p. 23, l. 19, and note on simplified text. +se+: the object (with +sua omnia+ = _their all_) of +permittere+. Another +se+ must be mentally supplied as the subject of +permittere+. 18. +incolant+: why not +incolunt+, for it must be translated as if it were +incolunt+? Because the clause +qui ... incolant+ depends on the clause +Germânos ... coniûnxisse+. It is therefore _a dependent clause of indirect discourse_, and as such must have the subjunctive. Thoroughly master this, the most important principle of Latin syntax. Mark how the descriptive clause, +qui ... incolant+, _is framed into_ the main clause. +line+ 19. +furôrem+: the politic or cowardly Remi considered the love of liberty and independence of their brother Belgæ _blind passion_. 20. +qui ... ûtantur+: _though they ... enjoyed._ +qui+, then, must sometimes be rendered _though he, though they_, etc., but only when the subjunctive follows. 21. +ûtantur+: supply immediately following +atque+. 22. +ipsis+: refers to +Rêmi+. 23. +quîn ... cônsentîrent+: _from ... uniting._ Compare +quîn ... proficîscerêtur+, p. 24, l. 6, and note on simplified text. CHAP. 4, line 1. +quantae+: refers to extent of country and population. +in armis essent+: connect with +quae cîvitâtes+: _what states were in arms, and how powerful they were_. 2. +quid in bello possent+: a literal translation, _what they could_ (do) _in war_, does not convey the meaning. Render, _what force they could bring into the field_. 4. +ibi+: +cis Rhênum+. 6. +ex re+: equivalent to +ex causa+. 7. +fîêbat+: _it was coming about._ The Remi said, in direct discourse, +fit+; and below, +sûmant+. +spîritus+: means in the singular _air_, and is here used just as we use "airs," in the phrase "to put on airs." 8. +omnia ... explôrâta+: _full information_. 9. +Quantam quisque+: notice the order. +Quisque+ likes to stand after +quantus+, +quotus+, +se+, and +suus+; here it means _each nation_. 11. +Plûrimum ... valêbant+: about equivalent to +plûrimum poterant+, _had the most power_. 18. +cum ... tum+: _not only ... but also_. 19. +Britanniae+: "the first mention of Britain by a Roman author." PAGE 24, 27. +propter fertilitâtem+: to be connected with +cônsêdisse+. 28. +incolerent+: why not +incolêbant+? See note on p. 24, l. 18, +qui ... incolant+. 29. +memoria+: _within the memory_; but two lines below, _because of the memory_. PAGE 25, 10. +nostra etiam memoria+: compare +patrum nostrôrum memoria+, p. 24, l. 29. 13. +obtinuerit+: _held_, not _obtained_, which is usually expressed by +adsecûtus est+, +cônsecûtus est+, or +adeptus est+. 15. +omnium voluntâte+: _with the assent of all_. 23. +arbitrâri+: that is, +Rêmos arbitrâri+. CHAP. 5, line 2. +obsides+: _as hostages_, in apposition with +lîberos+. What would have been the fate of these, if the chieftains had broken their pledges? 4. +Rêi pûblicae interest+: _it concerns the_ (Roman) _republic_. The real subject of +interest+, represented in English by _it_, is +manus hostium distinêri+. +manus+: the subject-accusative of +distinêri+, _to be kept from uniting_. 6. +ne ... cônflîgendum sit+: _that it may not be necessary to fight_. 7. +intrôdûxerint+: the Roman way of speaking is: this can be done, if that _shall be done, or shall have been done_; hence the future perfect. But mark that such a future or future perfect is often best rendered by a present. 9. +coâctas ... venîre+: _having been assembled ... to be coming_ = _had assembled ... and were coming_. 10. +vîdit+ = +intellêxit+. +neque iam+ = +et iam nôn+. +iis+: take with +explôrâtôribus+. 13. +quae res+: that is, his crossing the river and fixing his camp there. 14. +post eum quae essent+ = +ea quae post eum essent+, _his rear_. What should you expect in place of +eum+? +tûta+: goes with the whole expression, +post eum quae essent+. 16. +portâri+: _to be brought down the river to him_. 19. +in altitûdinem+: _to the height_. 20. +duodêvîginti pedum+: that is, +in lâtitûdinem+, _in width_. PAGE 25, 24. +lîberâliterque ôrâtiône prôsecûtus+: lîberâliter means _in a generous or kindly manner_; +ôrâtiône+ indicates in what sense +prôsecûtus+ is to be taken, _accompanying with words_; finally, +prôsequor+ has its common meaning of _accompany_, but with the meaning unusually applied: Cæsar had encouraged the Remi, and he _accompanies the encouragement with kind words_. Translate, _Cæsar encouraging the Remi and adding kind words_. 29. +commûnis salûtis+: by the _common interests_ Cæsar means those of the Ædui and the Romans. 30. +cônflîgendum sit+: compare +dubitandum (esse)+ p. 24, l. 5, and read the note. Here, as there, +sibi+, referring to Cæsar and the Ædui, must be mentally supplied, showing for whom the duty or necessity of action (hesitating, fighting) exists. 31. +Id fieri posse+: depends upon +docet+. To what does +id+ refer? PAGE 26, 1. +Postquam ... vîdit ... côgnôvit, ... mâtûrâvit+: _when he saw ... and found out_, (then) ... _he hastened_. 3. +neque ... côgnôvit+: _and from those scouts_, etc., _found out that they_ (the Belgæ) _were now not far distant_. 8. +et+ connects +reddêbat+ and +efficiêbat+, which have the same subject, +quae res+. The order makes this sentence difficult. Cæsar might have written: +et efficiêbat ut commeâtus ab Rêmis reliquîsque cîvitâtibus sine perîculo ad eum portâri posset+. The order is so perplexed and perplexing because Cæsar wrote in haste, and because he began with the word which was uppermost in his mind, +commeâtus+. CHAP. 6, line 2. +ex itinere+: _immediately after their march_. 3. +sustentâtum est+: _the Remi held out._ What literally? 4. +Gallôrum ... oppûgnâtio+: _the mode of attacking towns common to the Gauls and Belgæ_. 5. +tôtis moenibus+: dative, though by some thought to be an ablative, _all around the walls_. 228; H. 386, 2. 7. +testûdine facta+: _forming a testudo._ What the soldiers did was to lap their shields over their heads. 8. +cum+: _since._ What mode follows +cum+ in this sense? 11. +nûntium ... mittit+: one of the expressions that are followed by the accusative and infinitive; here, +sêse ... posse+. Compare in chapter 1, +certior fîêbat+, followed by +Belgas ... coniûrâre+; in chap. 4, +reperiêbat+, followed by +Belgas ortos esse+, in complete text. +Iccius Rêmus+: _Iccius, a Remian_. 13. +sêse+: subject-accusative of +posse+. PAGE 26, 19. +moenibus ... mûrum ... mûrus ... mûrum+: Cæsar's haste in writing is often manifest. 20. +coepti sunt+: it may seem strange that the passive should be used instead of the active, +coepêrunt+; but see 143, a; H. 297, 1. 22. +Quod+: how is a relative after a period often best rendered? For an example, see note on +qui+, chap. 1, l. 13, simplified text. 24. +nûlli+: mark the emphasis from the position. Many similar cases occur, notwithstanding A. & G., p. 389, Rem. +oppûgnandi+ = +oppûgnâtiônis+. 25. +summa nôbilitâte et grâtia+: a descriptive ablative; _a man of the highest rank and popularity_. 26. +praefuerat+: render as if an imperfect. The meaning is, he had been placed in command and was then in command. +ex iis+: the same as +eôrum+. 27. +lêgâti+: _as envoy_. Compare the use of +obsides+ as an appositive, p. 25, l. 26. 28. +submittâtur+: can you make out the force of the +sub+? CHAP. 7, line 2. +subsidio oppidânis+: _to aid the people in the town_. But what literally? For the construction, see 233, a; H. 390. 3. +quôrum adventu+: _in consequence of their coming_. 5. +contendêrunt+: the subject is +hostes+, suggested by +hostîbus+ in the preceding sentence. 6. +ab+: _distant, off, away_; so used chiefly with numerals. +ab mîlibus passuum minus duôbus+: a word for word rendering would be, _distant thousands of paces less than two_; that is, _less than two miles distant_. PAGE 26, 3. +neque ... côgnôvit+: _and learned from those scouts whom he had sent and from the Remi that they were now not far distant_. 30. +îsdem ducibus+: _the same persons as guides._ Compare +qui lêgâti+, p. 26, l. 27, and note on simplified text. PAGE 27, 3. +apud oppidum+: +ad+ is more usual. 4. +agros ... dêpopulâti--vîcis aedificiîsque ... incênsis+: literally, _having laid waste the fields--the villages and buildings having been burned_. Mark how the construction changes for want of a deponent verb in place of +incendo+. 9. +in lâtitûdinem+: compare +in altitûdinem+, p. 26, l. 13. CHAP. 8, line 2. +eximiam ... virtûtis+: _their eminent reputation for valor_. 3. +quid virtûte posset+: _what their real eminence in valor was_. Compare +quid in bello possent+, chap. 4, l. 2. 7. +tantum ... patêbat quantum loci+: render as if +loci+ depended on +tantum+ instead of +quantum+, _extended over as much space as_. +adversus+: _facing the enemy_; +adversus+ an adjective, agreeing with +collis+. +in lâtitûdinem+: _laterally._ Compare chap. 7, l. 8. 8. +ex utrâque parte lateris+ = +ex utrôque latere+: _on_, not _from_, _both sides_; so +ab+, below, l. 10. 10. +ad plânitiem redîbat+: _gradually resumed_ (impf.) _a level_. Cæsar describes a hill over against the enemy, having steep sides, and a front only broad enough for his army when arranged for battle. In front the hill rose with a gentle ascent, and at the top blended with the plain. It is possible that +lêniter fastîgâtus+ means, as the dictionaries define this passage and as many editors say, _gently sloping down_; in which case, +ad plânitiem redîbat+ would mean _sank down gradually to the level at its base_. This attributes an improbable meaning to +fastîgâtus+. 12. +extrêmas fossas+: _at the ends of the trenches_; compare in chap. 2, l. 2, +interiôrem Galliam+, _the interior of Gaul_. +castella+: there were, then, four. 17. +êductas înstrûxerant+: to make good English, render as if +êductas+ were a verb followed by +et+; so, very often, when a perfect participle and verb are closely connected. PAGE 27, 10. +et ... et+: we do not say _both ... and_ so frequently as we find +et ... et+ in Latin; accordingly it will generally be found better to omit in translation the first +et+, and render the second _and also_. 11. +proelio ... proeliis+: _a decisive battle ... skirmishes_. 14. +loco+: ablative absolute, _as there was a place_. 21. +obdûxit+: Cæsar elsewhere commonly uses +perdûco+ of running a wall or trench. Why +obdûco+ here? Because the +fossae+ were dug _against_ the enemy, or to _cover his position_. 24. +cum ... înstrûxisset+: Cæsar's thought was, according to Latin idiom, _when I shall have drawn up_, +înstrûxero+; but such a future perfect of direct speech becomes pluperfect subjunctive in narration, after a past tense in the principal clause. 24. +quod ... poterant+: _because they were so strong in numbers_. Find two other similar uses of +possum+. 27. +si quo opus esset+: _if there should be need of them anywhere_; not, _if there should be need of any thing_. 28. +subsidio+: in meaning and construction like +subsidio+, p. 26, l. 32. CHAP. 9, line 2. +si ... trânsîrent+: _to see if our men would cross this_ (+hanc+). 3. +contendêbâtur+: _there was fighting._ Compare chap. 6, l. 3, +sustentâtum est+. 4. +neutri+: _neither of the two armies_. 5. +secundiôre ... nostris+: _as the cavalry skirmish proved rather favorable to our men_. 9. +castellum+: read over again the last half of chap. 5. Cæsar makes no mention there of a +castellum+. 10. +potuissent+: the thought was, according to the Latin idiom, "if we shall not have been able" (+potuerimus+); but such a future perfect of direct speech becomes a pluperfect subjunctive in narration after a past tense. PAGE 28, 1. +nostri autem+, etc.: a difficult sentence; but treat it as directed in the Introductory Note, p. 43, only observing that +si+ has its usual meaning of _if_, and +impedîtos+, _when they should get stuck fast_, agrees with +hostes+ understood. 2. +ut ... adgrederentur+: expresses the purpose of +parâti in armis erant+. 9. +eo cônsilio+: _with this design_; explained by +ut castellum ... expûgnârent+. +possent+: they said to themselves, _if we shall be able_, +poterimus+; _but if we shall not have succeeded_, +si minus potuerimus+; hence +potuissent+, when related. See note on +înstrûxisset+, p. 27, l. 24. 12. +nôbis ûsui+: compare +subsidio oppidânis+, p. 26, l. 32. CHAP. 10, line 3. +pûgnâtum est+: contains its own subject, _there was fierce fighting_. See +contendêbâtur+, chap. 9, l. 3, and note. 4. +impedîtos+: _while they were struggling_. 6. +circumventos interfêcêrunt+: _they surrounded and killed_. Read again the note on +êductas înstrûxerant+, chap. 8, l. 17. 7. +spem+: subject-accusative of +fefellisse+; but translate, _that they were disappointed in the hope_. +neque+: take the negative part with +prôgredi+. 8. +ipsos+: that is, +se ipsos+, namely, +hostes+. 10. +quemque+: subject-accusative of +reverti+. See also note on chap. 4, l. 9. 11. +quôrum ... ad eos+: you will very often find the relative clause preceding the antecedent. In almost all such cases the English way of speaking requires us to render the antecedent clause first. 13. +Quod+: _this_, referring to the last two sentences. +eo cônsilio+: _with this design_, explained by the following clause. 16. +Hîs persuâdêri+: depends on +nôn poterat+. Why did not Cæsar write, +Hi persuâdêri ... nôn poterant+, since he means, _these could not be persuaded_? 230; H. 301, 1. PAGE 28, 19. +reliquos ... cônantes+: _the rest ... while they were trying_. 21. +Hostes+: subject of +cônstituêrunt+, l. 25, while a pronoun referring to +hostes+ may be mentally supplied as subject of +intellêxêrunt+ and +vîdêrunt+. This sentence illustrates an important principle of Latin order, attention to which will be of great aid in translation. When the verb of the principal clause and that of the dependent clause have the same subject, it is commonly expressed in the principal, and left out in the dependent, clause. In English we do the opposite. We often begin with the dependent clause; the Latin _frames it into_ the principal clause. 21. +ubi+: repeat mentally with +vîdêrunt+ and +coepit+. 28. +ad eos dêfendendos+: illustrates a very common way of expressing a purpose. CHAP. 11, line 1. +ea re+: that is, to disperse to their homes; chap. 10, l. 10. 2. +êgressi+: the subject is +Belgae+, understood. 3. +cônsimilis+: _altogether like._ What is the force of +con+? 4. +Caesar+: as the subject of +veritus+ and +continuit+, +Caesar+ seems strangely placed in the grip of the ablative absolute; but the position shows by whom the knowledge was got. _Caesar getting wind of this movement immediately through his spies_. 5. +veritus+: try always to render a participle so as to show its logical relation to the main verb, whether of time, cause, contrast, or what not; here, _because he feared_. +castris+: substantially equivalent to +in castris+. 6. +qui ... morârêtur+: compare +qui dêdûceret+, chap. 2, l. 3, and note. 10. +ventum erat+: _they had come._ Compare +sustentâtum est+, chap. 6, l. 3; +contendêbâtur+, chap. 9, l. 3. 11. +priôres+: _those in advance_. 15. +sub+: _towards._ The idea of _place_ being transferred to that of time. PAGE 29, 5. +quisque+: see p. 25, l. 3, and note on simplified text. +prîmum itineris locum+: _the first place on the road_. 8. +qua ... discêderent+: following +quod ... perspêxerat+. 16. +cum ... cônsisterent+: _since the enemy, at the very extremity of the rear, kept making a stand_. 18. +priôres+: +et+ understood; _while those in advance_. +quod+: carry on also into the next clause; _and because they were not held together_ (+continêrentur+). 21. +sine ûllo perîculo+: two ways of expressing "without any" in this chapter; for above we have +nûllo certo ôrdine+, _without any definite order_. 23. +quantum ... spatium+: _how great a space of time_ (+diêi+) _there was_; that is (they killed as great a number) _as the length of the time allowed_. 24. +sêque in castra ... recêpêrunt+: and they and their pitiless commander probably slept well that night. CHAP. 12, line 3. +ex itinere+: see chap. 6, l. 2, and note. +oppûgnâre+: means here _carry by assault_. 5. +omnis ... multitûdo+: notice that an adjective and a noun are often separated by words depending on the noun. Here +ex fuga+ from the position is almost equivalent to +fugientium+. 6. +vîneis+: wooden frames with sloping roof and covered with hides, to protect a number of besiegers. 7. +âctis+: from +ago+, _brought up_; the +vîneae+ were often moved on wheels. +aggere iacto+: _when earth had been thrown up for a mound_. This was done so that wooden towers could be brought up near the walls. 10. +ut cônservârentur+: mark how often a dependent clause precedes the one on which it depends. Attention to this will often help in unravelling a long sentence. Now see +qui ... dêdûceret+, chap. 2, l. 3; +quid ... posset et ... audêrent+, chap. 8, ll. 3, 4; +qui ... morârêtur+, chap. 11, l. 6. PAGE 29, 32. +paucis dêfendentibus+: _though the defenders were few_. PAGE 30, 1. +Castris mûnîtis+: _after making a fortified camp._ The first and most important thing, after selecting the site of a camp, was to intrench it. That may be all that is meant in this instance. +vîneas agere+: depends on +coepit+. +quaeque ... comparâre+: _and to get ready whatever_. 2. +ûsui+: compare +subsidio+, p. 26, l. 32. 5. +quae+: _the like of which_. CHAP. 13, line 1. +obsidibus acceptis+: _after receiving hostages_. +armis ... trâditis+: it was Cæsar's practice to disarm his conquered enemies. 3. +Qui cum+: the relative is in the right place in Latin, but we cannot translate in this order. The natural place for both words is at the beginning of a clause; but when they come together, the relative takes precedence. 5. +circiter ... quînque+: _only about five miles_. 6. +abesset+: governed by +cum+. +mâiôres nâtu+: _elders_; +seniôres+ would not do. 7. +sêse ... venîre+: _they surrendered to him unconditionally_. 9. +pueri+: _children_, as +homines+ often means _men and women_. PAGE 30, 9. +atque+: _and besides_, or _and in particular_. 17. +neque ... contendere+: _and that they were not in arms_. 20. +passis manibus+: pitiful! CHAP. 14, line 1. +facit verba+: _intercedes_. 2. +in fide ... fuêrunt+: _have been faithful and friendly_. 4. +perferre+: _were enduring._ For the tense, see 336, A. 5. +êius cônsili prîncipes+: _the prime movers in this plan_: +prîncipes+ = +auctôres+, _authors_. 6. +in Britanniam profûgêrunt+: as lately Boulanger and others have done. 8. +clêmentia+: said of one who has power to exercise the opposite, +sevêritas+, +crûdêlitas+. +mânsuêtûdine+: said of one who is humane and gentle, opposed to +feritas+. 9. +fêceris ... amplificâbis+: we say, 'if you do this, you will add to'; in Latin, 'if you shall have done this, you will add to.' 10. +qua+: 105, d.; H. 190, 1. +si qua bella+, etc.: _by whose aid and resources they_ (the Ædui) _are accustomed to bear the burden of whatever wars befall them_. PAGE 30, 26. +perferre ... dêfêcisse+: _were enduring ... had revolted_. 28. +quod intellegerent+: _seeing_. 31. +sua+: emphatic; _his own_, that is, _his well-known_. 32. +quod si fêcerit+: _if he should do this_; the subjunctive of the future perfect, for which there is no separate form; hence the form of the perfect subjunctive is borrowed. If the tense is named by its form, it will be called _perfect subjunctive_; if by its meaning, _future perfect subjunctive_. PAGE 31, 1. +amplificâtûrum (esse)+: the subject must be inferred from the subject of +fêcerit+. CHAP. 15, line 1. +honôris ... causa+: _out of regard to Divitiacus_. 3. +mâgna ... auctôritâte+: _one of great influence_; a predicate ablative of description; such an ablative must always have a modifier, as here, +mâgna+. The genitive may be used in the same way, as below, +mâgnae virtûtis+. On the order, see note, chap. 12, l. 5. 6. +quôrum+, etc.: translate closely in the order of the Latin; _about their character and customs, Cæsar, on inquiry_; so, generally, do your best to keep close to the Latin order. Read again the Introductory Note, p. 43. 12. +qui ... dêdissent+: _for having surrendered_; what would be the meaning of +qui ... dêdiderant+? PAGE 31, 6. +hominum ... praestâbat+: _was the most populous_; what is it literally? 12. +pati+: _that they permitted._ Supply +eos+, referring to +Nervii+, as the subject of +pati+, +esse+, +increpitâre+, and +cônfirmâre+. 13. +quod ... exîstimârent+: observe in the simplified text +quod ... exîstimâbant+; why the difference? 16. +qui ... dêdissent ... prôiêcissent+: _for having surrendered and renounced_; literally, _since they had surrendered_. 17. +sêse+: subject-accusative of +mîssûros+. CHAP. 16, line 1. +trîduum+: _for three days_, accusative of duration. 2. +Sabim+: now called the Sambre. 6. +quîque+: equivalent to +et eos qui+, _and all such as_. +per aetâtem+: _by reason of their age_; that is, whether too old or too young. 7. +in eum locum ... quo+: _into a place to which._ The idea of the Latin fully expressed would be, _into a place of such a character_ (+eum+) _that to it_ (+quo+) _there would be no access for an army_. 319, 2 and note; H. 500, I. Compare +qui ... vidêrentur+, immediately preceding. 8. +exercitui+: _for an army_, not necessarily, _for Cæsar's army_. PAGE 31, 19. +Cum ... fêcisset+: a temporal +cum+ clause is not always best rendered by _when_, etc.: _after marching for three days_. 24. +hîs ... persuâserant+: observe on p. 29, l. 1, an example of the impersonal construction of +persuâdeo+ in the passive: +hîs persuâdêri ... nôn poterat+, _it was not possible for these to be persuaded_. 27. +côniêcisse+: the verb implies hurried action, and so differs from +dêpôno+, which Cæsar uses in Book IV., 19, of putting women and children in a place of safety. CHAP. 17, line 2. +qui ... dêligant+: compare +qui dêdûceret+, chap. 2, l. 3, and note; +qui ... morârêtur+, chap. 11, l. 6. +Cum+: _since._ See note on chap. 6, l. 8. 5. +dêmônstrârunt+: shortened from +dêmônstrâvêrunt+, 128, a, 1; H. 235. +inter singulas+: _between each two_; the same mistake, "between each," is common in English. 6. +neque ... negôti+: _and it was a matter of no difficulty at all_. 7. +cum ... vênisset+: _when the first legion should reach the camping ground._ In the direct form, +vênerit+, _shall have reached_; then regularly such a future perfect is changed to the pluperfect subjunctive in indirect discourse after a past tense. See note on chap 9, l. 10. 8. +sarcinis+: "Besides his arms, the Roman soldier carried stakes (+vâlli+), used for the palisades of the camp, food and utensils, a saw, a spade, a chain for his prisoners, and other things. He was loaded like a mule." --LONG. +qua pulsa+: _if this legion were beaten_. +futûrum (esse)+: depends on +dêmônstrârunt+; _the result would be_. 9. +Nervii autem+: _now the Nervii._ +Nervii+ is the subject of +effêcerant+. This long sentence is not so difficult as it at first seems. Follow closely the Latin order to discover the sense, render +quo+ _in order that_, +effêcerant+ _had caused_, and +înstar+ _like_. 11. +teneris ... ênâtis+: _by lopping the trees when young, and intertwining the branches which grew out thick in a lateral direction_; +ênâtis+ from +ênâscor+. 12. +interiectis+: it does not appear possible to take this word in the sense given to it in the dictionaries, _thrown or stuffed in_. So Moberly translates, "by throwing in brambles and thorns for the present occasion." But is it to be supposed that this was done everywhere? If not, how would the Nervii know where to do it? Moreover, what they had done was done +antîquitus+, _from of old_. Translate, therefore, _by planting among them_. 14. +quo nôn modo nôn ... sed ne ... quidem+: this formula, or (without second +nôn+) +nôn modo ... sed ne ... quidem+, is usually awkwardly rendered, _not only not, but not even_. Instead, translate as if the first member were complete in itself (suppressing +modo+), followed by _nay, nor even_, thus: _which it was not possible to pass through, nay, nor even see through_. 15. +Hîs rêbus+: _by these obstacles_. 16. +nôn ... cônsilium+: _they ought not to disregard the advice_. PAGE 32, 4. +impedîmentôrum+: here, _baggage animals_; +impedîmentis+, below, _baggage_. 9. +Adiuvâbat+: the subject is the long sentence following, +Nervii ... effêcerant+. Translate, _this circumstance favored the advice of those who reported the intelligence, that_ (+quod+). 10. +nihil ... possent+: compare +quid in bello possent+, p. 24, l. 25; +quid virtûte posset+, p. 27, l. 12. 11. +neque enim+: _and in fact ... not._ Observe that +enim+ here does not mean _for_. 12. +pedestribus valent côpiis+: compare +virtûte ... valêre+, p. 25, l. 5. The ablative is ablative of means. 13. +ad eos+: that is, the Nervii. CHAP. 18, line 1. +quem locum+: _I mean the place which_. 3. +Ab eo flûmine+: that is, on the other side. 4. +pari adclîvitâte collis+: _a hill of similar upward slope_; a descriptive ablative. +ab superiôre parte+: _in the upper part._ +Ab+ not seldom means _on, in, at, by_, because the idea of removal (_from_) implies previous contact or nearness, and the latent idea is sometimes the most important. 5. +ut+: may be considered as referring to an +ita+ suppressed with +silvestris+; _so thickly wooded that_. +nôn ... posset+: _one could not easily see within._ Impersonal expressions, like +perspici potest+, are common in Latin. Mark the mode of translation. 7. +secundum+: _along_, properly _following_, from +sequor+. PAGE 32, 24. +adversus huic et contrârius+: _corresponding to this and right opposite_. 25. +passus ... apertus+: _clear of woods for about two hundred paces up from its base_. +înfimus+: +ab înferiôre parte+. CHAP. 19, line 1. +omnibus côpiis+: Cæsar often uses +cum omnibus côpiis+. 2. +cônsuêtûdine+: _according to custom_; just as frequently +ex cônsuêtûdine+. 4. +conlocârat+: for +conlocâverat+. See +dêmônstrârunt+, chap. 17, l. 5, and note. 6. +praesidiôque impedîmentis+: compare +subsidio oppidânis+, chap. 7, l. 2, and note. 11. +opere dîmênso+: _after laying out the work_; the expression refers to marking off the ground preparatory to trenching, making a rampart, etc. +castra mûnîre+: _to make a camp_. 17. +in manibus nostris+: _close upon us_. 18. +ad+: _towards_; repeat it mentally before +eos+. +adverso colle+: _straight up the hill_; literally, _with the hill before them_; so perhaps strictly neither an ablative absolute nor an ablative of the "way by which." PAGE 32, 32. +ratio ôrdôque âgminis+: _the plan and the order of marching_. +aliter ... âc+: _otherwise than, different from what_; this strange idiom looks like an abridged, colloquial expression; probably it was, fully expressed, +aliter âc aliter+, _one way and another way_. The order of march was one way and the Belgæ had reported it another way. So I have heard a child say, "This is different and that is different," meaning "this is different from that." PAGE 33, 8. +cum+: _while_; to be repeated mentally with +facerent+. 10. +neque ... cêdentes însequi audêrent+: _and while our men were hesitating to pursue them when they retreated_. +quem ad fînem+: translate as if it were +ad fînem ad quem+, _to the line to which the level, clear ground extended_. 15. +ut ... cônfirmâverant+: _as they had arranged their order of battle and ranks within the woods, and as they had encouraged each other to do_. CHAP. 20, line 2. +sîgnum tuba dandum (erat)+: in order to call the men to take their places in the ranks. Some might not see the flag. 3. +sîgnum dandum+: this time the signal is for the charge, or perhaps to get ready for a charge. 5. +subsidio+: dative of end or service, but render as if a nominative, which might have been used, _a help_. 7. +commode+: modifies +praescrîbere+. +ipsi sibi praescrîbere ... poterant+: they could _direct themselves without any orders_ (+ipsi+). 11. +nihil+: _not ... at all_; stronger than +nôn+. 12. +per se+: _on their own responsibility_. +quae vidêbantur+: _whatever seemed best_. PAGE 33, 27. +qui+: does not refer to +mîlites+, but to +ii+ understood. +aggeris petendi causa+: _for the purpose of seeking materials for a rampart_. Mark the position of +causa+, always following the genitive depending on it. 30. +hîs difficultâtibus+: _in this strait_; but the words are in the dative with +subsidio+. Find two other instances of this construction of two datives. 32. +quid fieri oportêret+: the object of +praescrîbere+. CHAP. 21, line 1. +necessâriis rêbus imperâtis+: when you meet with +res+, ask yourself exactly what it means, and then find a proper rendering. Translate, _after giving the necessary orders_. 4. +prîstinae+: this word is often used of what was formerly and still continues. +neu ... animo+: _and not lose presence of mind_. 6. +quod ... aberant+: gives the reason of the following, not the preceding, clause. 8. +pûgnantibus occurrit+: _he finds them fighting_. 8. +Temporis+: mark how the important word comes first. Take this sentence in thought almost without change in the order of the words, then translate. +tanta ... exiguitas+: _so great was the littleness_ = _such was the shortness_. Translate, _so short was the time_. 10. +însîgnia+: "the crests, feathers red and black, and other decorations which the soldiers had.... On the march the helmet was not carried on the head. The shields had leather coverings when they were not in use." --LONG. 12. +Quam ... dêvênit+: _to whatever part of the army each one happened to come_. +ab opere+: that is, making the camp; see chap. 19, l. 11. 13. +quaeque ... cônspêxit+: _and whatever standards he caught sight of first_. PAGE 34, 13. +quo ... posset+: _whither a javelin could be hurled_ = _a javelin throw_. 19. +Quam ... in partem+: compare the second line of the chapter. +quisque+ seems oddly placed, but it is crowded out of the first place, where it would like to stand, by +quam+. CHAP. 22, line 2. +rei mîlitâris ... ôrdo+: _military science and arrangement_. 3. +fiêbat+: _the result was_. +aliae ... parte+: in this idiom the second part only of the thought is expressed. '_Other legions were fighting in another part_' implies 'some were fighting in one part of the field.' So +claudus altero pede+, _lame in the other foot_, implies one foot sound. 5. +interiectis+: to be taken with +saepibus+. 6. +ut+: _so that_. +conlocâri+: depends on +possent+. 7. +in+: of reason, _because of_ or _owing to_. 8. +inîquitâte+: usually translated _unfavorable condition_, or by some similar phrase, and such is the common meaning of +inîquitas+; but the context shows that the meaning here is closer to the original sense, that of _unevenness_; hence we may translate, _owing to such inequality in the condition of things_. PAGE 34, 25. +cum+: _since_, governs +impedîrêtur+ as well as +resisterent+. +dîversis legiônibus+: +dîversus+ means _turned different ways, not with united line_; hence here, _disjoined_. Translate, _since, owing to the legions being separated_. 28. +neque certa subsidia+: here begins the statement of the result; +certa subsidia+: subject of +poterant+. +neque quid+, etc.: _nor was it possible to foresee what was needed everywhere_. After +prôvidêri+ supply mentally +poterat+, of which the whole preceding clause is the grammatical subject. CHAP. 23, line 1. +ut+: _since_. Would the mode of +cônstiterant+ have been the same, if +cum+ had been used in place of +ut+? 2. +acie+: an old form of the genitive for +aciêi+. +Atrebates+: object of +compulêrunt+. 6. +Ipsi+: refers to the subject of +interfêcêrunt+; that is, +legiônis nônae et decimae mîlites+. 8. +dîversae+ = +aliae+; what should it mean from its derivation? 10. +a frônte+: _along the front_. See chap. 18, l. 4, and note. 11. +ab sinistra parte+: _on the left_. Compare +â frônte+, preceding line, and +ab superiôre parte+, chap. 18, l. 4, and note. +nûdâtis castris+: _as the camp was left unguarded_. 13. +aperto latere+: _on their_ (the legions') _exposed flank_. 14. +summum ... locum+: _the summit occupied by the camp_; +castrôrum+ is a possessive genitive. PAGE 35, 3. +exanimâtos ... cônfectos+: _breathless and exhausted by wounds_. +hîs+: the ninth and tenth legions. 4. +ea pars+: that is, +ea pars hostium+. 5. +cônantes+: accusative, agreeing with +Atrebates+ understood, or a pronoun referring to Atrebates. 8. +resistentes hostes+: object of +côniêcêrunt+. 16. +summam imperi+: _chief command_. CHAP. 24, line 2. +cum ... reciperent+: _as they were returning_. 5. +cum respêxissent+: _on looking back_. A +cum+ clause is not always best translated by a full clause. 6. +praecipites ... mandâbant+: _ran away as fast as they could._ What literally? 7. +eôrum+: depends on +clâmor fremitusque+. 8. +ferêbantur+: _began to rush._ Observe the imperfects followed by perfects. The imperfect paints, the perfect describes. 10. +auxili causa+: _for the purpose of rendering aid_ = _as auxiliaries_. 11. +cum+: _since._ See note, chap. 6, l. 8. +complêri+: this and the following infinitives depend on +vîdissent+. 13. +vîdissent+: the subject is +equites Trêveri+. 14. +rêbus+: _fortunes._ How might a clause be substituted here in Latin for the ablative absolute? 15. +pulsos superâtôsque+: supply +esse+. PAGE 35, 21. +pulsos+: supply +esse+. 22. +adversis hostibus occurrêbant+: _came straight against the enemy._ What literally? 23. +câlônes ... âc summo iugo+: the +porta decumâna+ was the rear gate of the camp, opposite the +porta praetôria+. It appears from this passage that the place for the +câlônes+ was at the back of the camp, and that in this instance the camp was partly on sloping ground. 30. +virtûtis opînio+: _reputation for valor_. PAGE 36, 2. +dîversos dissipâtôsque+: _running in different directions and scattered_. 5. +hostes+: subject-accusative of +potîtos (esse)+. CHAP. 25, line 2. +suos urgêri+: _that his men were hard pressed_; the infinitive depends on +vîdit+. 3. +cônfertos mîlites+: _that the soldiers by being crowded together_. +sibi ... impedîmento+: _hindered one another_. 8. +ut ... posset+: _so that he could no longer stand_. 9. +Hîs rêbus+: _for these reasons_. +tardiôres+: _were losing heart_. 12. +subeuntes intermittere+: _cease mounting the hill_. 12. +ab utrôque latere+: _on both flanks._ Compare +ab superiôre parte+, chap. 18, l. 4. 13. +rem ... angusto+: _that the situation was critical._ What literally? 14. +ûni+: a peculiar use of +ûnus+, quite equivalent to _a_; not to be imitated in writing Latin. 17. +sîgna ... iûssit+: _he ordered them to advance and at the same time to open out their ranks_. PAGE 36, 7. +Caesar+: subject of +prôcessit+, fifteen lines below. This first sentence extending through eighteen lines looks very formidable; but if it is taken in accordance with the Introductory Note, p. 43, the meaning will be evident. To translate the sentence is more difficult. In translating, repeat "_and saw_" before the words +quartae cohortis+, and render the ablative absolutes by clauses, thus: _and saw that all the captains of the fourth cohort were killed_. Then, +reliquos esse tardiôres+, _that the rest_ (in consequence) _were losing heart_. 8. +sîgnîsque ... conlâtis+: _and since the standards were brought together._ Try constantly to make out the relation in thought expressed by participles; that is, whether the idea is that of time, _when, while_, etc.; of cause, _as, since_; of concession, _though, notwithstanding_; or of condition, accompanying circumstances, etc., to be variously rendered. 16. +ab novissimis+: _in the rear_. So below, l. 21. Compare +ab sinistra parte+, p. 35, l. 13. In both places in this chapter it would be easy to make the mistake of taking +ab+ in the sense of +ex+, as a substitute for the partitive genitive. 27. +operam nâvâre cuperet+: "_wished to do his best_." What literally? CHAP. 26, line 3. +ut ... coniungerent+: _for the legions gradually to draw together_. 7. +proelio nûntiâto+: _on the report of the battle_. +cursu incitâto+: _quickening their speed._ The participle following is causal; they began to run because of the report of the battle. 10. +qui+: refers to +decimam legiônem+. What is the grammatical irregularity, and how is it to be accounted for? +cum+: to be taken with +côgnôvissent+. +quo in loco res esset+: _what the situation was._ What literally? Account for the subjunctive. 12. +nihil ... fêcêrunt+: _left nothing undone in the way of speed_. What literally? +reliqui+: neuter of +reliquus+. A partitive genitive depending on +nihil+. Find a similar construction in chap. 15. PAGE 36, 31. +conversa sîgna+: the object of +înferrent+, but most conveniently rendered as coördinate with it, _to face about and charge_. It is thought that by this movement the twelfth and the seventh legions formed a circle or a square. PAGE 37, 1. +neque timêrent+: repeat +cum+ mentally from the preceding clause; _and since they_ (no longer) _feared_. +âversi+: literally, _being turned away_; translate, _from their rear being unguarded_. CHAP. 27, line 2. +vulneribus cônfecti+: _badly wounded._ What literally? +prôcubuissent+: from +prôcumbo+. 3. +vêro+: emphasizes +equites+, but is better left untranslated; say, _while the cavalry_. 4. +se ... praeferrent+: _thrust themselves before_; a result clause, dependent on +tanta ... est facta+. 5. +in extrêma spe salûtis+: "_when all hope of saving themselves was at an end_." Here a literal translation would be meaningless or misleading. 7. +proximi ... însistêbant+: _those nearest would stand upon their prostrate companions_. 8. +hîs deiêctis+: _when these_ (in turn) _were thrown down_. 10. +intercepta remittêbant+: _would catch and hurl back._ See +êductas înstrûxerant+, chap. 8, l. 17, and note. 11. +ut+, etc.: _so that one ought to judge that it was not without cause that men of such valor._ On +iûdicâre dêbêret+, compare +perspici posset+, chap. 18, l. 5, and note. 13. +quae ... difficillimis+: _things which, most difficult in themselves_. +facilia+: a predicate adjective with +redêgerat+. PAGE 37, 15. +innîxi+: from +innîtor+, agrees with +nostri+. +perterritos+: supply +esse+; the subject-accusative is +hostes+. 16. +inermes+: agrees with +câlônes+, _even though unarmed_. 23. +qui superessent+: _the survivors._ Supply +ii+ as antecedent of +qui+. +ut+: _as_. So used p. 34, l. 23. 24. +cônicerent+: dependent on +tantam virtutem ... ut+; (so that) _those who survived_ (+qui superessent+) _kept hurling_. CHAP. 28, line 1. +prope+: modifies +ad+, not +redâcto+. 2. +redâcto+: see the last word of the preceding chapter. +mâiôres nâtu+: see chap. 13, l. 6, and note. 3. +pueris+: see chap. 13, l. 9, and note. 4. +cônsênsu ... supererant+: _with the consent of all the survivors_. 7. +vix ad+: _to barely_; for +ad vix+, as some say. 8. +in+: _towards_; +erga+ might have been used. 9. +vidêrêtur+: not _that he might seem_, but _that he might be seen_. 11. +se ... prohibêrent+: _refrain and keep their dependents from_; +prohibêre+ is appropriate to +suos+, but hardly to +se+. PAGE 37, 31. +aestuâria+: "the country lying to the north (the modern Zealand) is low and marshy, cut up with tidewater inlets and bays." --ALLEN & GREENOUGH. 32. +cum vîctôribus+, etc.: _since they thought there was no obstacle for the victors, no safety for the vanquished_. PAGE 38, 4. +mîlibus LX.+: they had promised fifty thousand; see chap. 4. It was natural that they should exaggerate their losses. CHAP. 29, line 1. +auxilio Nerviis+: compare +subsidio oppidânis+, chap. 7, l. 2, and note. Find other examples of this construction. 4. +ûnum oppidum+: supposed to be at the junction of the Sambre and Meuse. 5. +ex omnibus in circuitu partibus+: simply, _all round_. 9. +conlocâbant+: there is a reading, +conlocârant+. If that is the true reading, +tum+ in the preceding line would mean _besides_. PAGE 38, 10. +cum+: _while._ Four lines below +cum+ means _though_. 16. +aditus ... pedum+: _an approach of two hundred feet in breadth, not more_; +pedum+ depends on +aditus+. 21. +iis impedîmentis+: take with +dêpositis+, two lines below. 22. +agere âc portâre+: _drive or carry_. 24. +ûna+: _with it_; that is, the plunder. 25. +cum alias+, etc.: _since they carried on now aggressive now defensive war._ What literally? CHAP. 30, line 1. +prîmo adventu+ = +cum prîmum advênisset+, _as soon as our army had got there_. 3. +pedum XII.+: that is, +in altitûdinem+, which is expressed, chap. 5, l. 19. 4. +oppido+: might have been +in oppido+. Cf. +castris+, chap. 11, l. 5. 5. +vîneis âctis+: +âctis+ from +ago+; see chap. 12, l. 6, and note. +aggere exstrûcto+: an embankment of timber, stones, and earth was begun at a distance from the walls of a town, wide enough to roll one or more towers upon, and was carried forward by soldiers working under the shelter of the +vîneae+ up to the defensive works. 6. +cônstitui+: _being raised_. 7. +ab tanto spatio+: _so far away._ Compare +ab mîlibus+, chap. 7, l. 6, and note. 8. +quibusnam manibus+: _with what hands, pray_; +nam+ added for emphasis, to point their sarcasm. 10. +conlocâre+: strangely used for +conlocâtûros (esse)+. The Aduatuci may have thought that the Romans intended to hoist the tower upon their wall, or they may have been joking. Which is more likely? PAGE 39, 5. +hominibus ... contemptui+: another pair of datives. Find other examples. The Italians of the present time do not strike one as conspicuously shorter than the Germans. +mâgnitûdine+: being contrasted with +brevitas+, is used in the sense of +altitûdine+. CHAP. 31, line 1. +movêri+: _moving._ This word here has suggested a change of +conlocâre+, in the last line of the preceding chapter, to +môtûros+, a very plausible conjecture, but it spoils the joke of the Aduatuci. 5. +qui+: _since they._ Compare +qui ... dêdidissent+, chap. 15, l. 12, and note. 8. +pro sua clêmentia+: _according to his well-known clemency_. See chap. 14, l. 8, and note. What did they think of his clemency when he sold 53,000 of them into slavery? 11. +trâditis armis+ = +si arma trâdidissent+, _if they should surrender their arms_. 13. +per cruciâtum interfici+: _to be tortured to death._ What literally? PAGE 39, 16. +statuisset+: not _had decided_, but _should decide_. No mistake is oftener made by beginners than in the rendering of a pluperfect subjunctive of indirect discourse representing a future perfect of direct discourse. Such a subjunctive is to be rendered by the auxiliary _should_, not _had_. To tell whether a pluperfect subjunctive represents a future perfect, think what form a speaker's words would take, remembering that the Romans commonly used the future or future perfect of things really future, while we very often use the present. CHAP. 32, line 1. +cônsuêtûdine+: ablative of cause. 3. +aries+: "a long, strong beam of wood, furnished with an iron head in the form of a ram's head. It was suspended from a framework by a strong chain or ropes, and worked by men, who drove it against the wall." --LONG. 4. +in Nerviis+: _in the case of the Nervii_; a common meaning of +in+ with names of persons. 5. +ne quam ... înferant+: _not to do any harm to those who had surrendered to the Roman people_. 7. +facere+: one would expect the future with subject-accusative, +se factûros (esse)+. Compare +conlocâre+, for +conlocâtûros esse+, chap. 30, l. 10. 9. +prope ... adaequârent+: _came up almost to the very top_; +summam+ with +altitûdinem+. What literally? 12. +pâce sunt ûsi+ = +conquiêvêrunt+, _kept quiet_. CHAP. 33, line 3. +nostros+: _our commanders_, subject-accusative of +dêductûros+ and +servâtûros (esse)+. +praesidia+: men stationed in the +castella+; see below. 4. +dêductûros ... servâtûros+: observe how frequently +esse+ is omitted with the future participle. +dênique+: _at any rate._ What is its usual meaning? 5. +tertia vigilia+: the Romans divided the night into four equal divisions, watches, of about three hours each. 9. +eo concursum est+: _the soldiers hurried thither._ What literally? Find similar constructions in chaps. 6, 9, 10, 11. 10. +in extrêma spe salûtis+: compare chap. 27, l. 5, and note. The context shows, however, that the meaning is not quite the same here. Translate, _as their last chance of saving themselves_. 14. +nêmo+: observe the emphasis from its position. Compare in English, "Silver and gold have I none." +nêmo+ and +nûllus+ are often so placed. Cf. +nûlli+, chap. 6, l. 10. 16. +ab iis qui êmerant+ = +ab emptôribus+: _by the purchasers_, who were the +mercâtôres+, traders who followed the army as hungry sharks follow a ship. +capitum+: we say "souls." It depends on +quînquâginta trium+. 17. +quînquâginta trium+: 53,000 captives, probably chained in gangs and sent to be sold in the Province and in Italy; a source of great gain to the general. PAGE 40, 4. +mîlites ... mîlitibus+: another evidence of haste. See p. 26, l. 19, and note. 5. +ne quam ... iniûriam+: see p. 39, l. 28, and note. 9. +iis+: with +armis+. Observe the order of the words. 10. +vîminibus intextis+: repeat mentally +ex+ before these words. Some supply +factis+. 16. +pûgnâtumque+, etc.: translate as if +hostibus+ and +viris+ were subjects. 17. +ut ... dêbuit+: _as brave men ought to fight._ What literally? 18. +iacerent+: the subjunctive shows that the remark is a general one. The indicative would have a limiting force. The difference can hardly be brought out in translation. In the former case we may render, _against men who could throw_; in the latter, _against those who were throwing_. 20. +ad+ = +circiter+. CHAP. 34, line 2. +mîserat+: _had sent_, that is, before the defeat of the Aduatuci. 5. +diciônem+: _under the sway_; in some texts, +in dêditiônem+. If that reading is correct, the meaning would be, _were brought to surrender_. CHAP. 35, line 1. +pâcâta+: see p. 23, l. 7, and note. 4. +qui ... pollicêrentur+: compare p. 23, l. 19, +qui ... dêdûceret+; p. 29, l. 12, +qui ... morârêtur+; p. 31, l. 30, +qui ... dêligant+. 6. +inita proxima aestâte+: see p. 23, l. 18, and note. 10. +ex litteris+: _in consequence of the letters_. 11. +supplicâtio+: a public, religious festival of thanksgiving, decreed by the senate.

ETYMOLOGICAL VOCABULARY. The relation in meaning of some words in certain groups to the root is sometimes obscure or even impossible to be traced with absolute certainty. Sometimes the relation is obscured by the omission in this vocabulary of an interlinking word, because it does not occur in the text. Let us take an example close at hand, the root AID- and the noun +aestuârium+. The notion "inlet" seems very remote from the notion "burn." But +aestuârium+ is formed from +aestus+ (for _aedtus_), the first meaning of which is _the raging of fire, waves or billows of heat_. As we might expect, a secondary meaning is, _the raging of water, waves, billows_, in the proper sense. From the force of the suffix +-ârium+, +aestuârium+ should mean a _sea-marsh_, or _a tract overflowed at high tide_; and from this the notion "inlet," the place through which the tide rushes, comes naturally enough.
