RECENT COLLEGE EXAMINATIONS TRANSLATE: BROWN UNIVERSITY Caesar eo tempore cum legione una profectus ad recipiendas ulteriores civitates et rem frumentariam expediendam, qua anguste utebatur, erat ad Buthrotum, oppositum Corcyrae. Ibi certior ab Acilio et Murco per litteras factus de postulatis Libonis et Bibuli legionem relinquit; ipse Oricum revertitur. Eo cum venisset, evocantur illi ad colloquium. Prodit Libo atque excusat Bibulum, quod is iracundia summa erat inimicitiasque habebat etiam privatas cum Caesare ex aedilitate et praetura conceptas: ob eam causam colloquium vitasse, ne res maximae spei maximaeque eius utilitatis iracundia impedirentur. TRANSLATE: Tum vero Phaethon cunctis e partibus orbem TRANSLATE: Inde per iniectis adopertam floribus ingens Serpit humum, flectitque sinus, mediamque per urbem Restitit hic, agmenque suum turbaeque sequentis Corpus in Ausonia posuit rate, numinis illa At pius Aeneas dextram tendebat inermem TRANSLATE: UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO Mittit primum Brutum adulescentem cum cohortibus Caesar, post cum aliis C. Fabium legatum; postremo ipse cum vehementius pugnaretur, integros subsidio adducit. Restituto proelio ac repulsis hostibus, eo quo Labienum miserat contendit: cohortes quattuor ex proximo castello deducit, equitum partem se sequi, partem circumire exteriores munitiones et a tergo hostes adoriri iubet. Labienus postquam neque aggeres neque fossae vim hostium sustinere poterant, coactis undecim cohortibus, quas ex proximis praesidiis deductas fors obtulit, Caesarem per nuntios facit certiorem quid faciendum existimet. Accelerat Caesar ut proelio intersit. Caesar, B. G., VII, 87. |
