Fēlēs Cūriōsa, Urbs - Capitulum Primum
fēlēs et vir urbem intrant. fēlēs cūriōsa est. fēlēs multa et māxima aedificia spectat! Vir et fēlēs sunt amīcī.
fēlēs templa spectat. fēlēs arcūs spectat. Fēlēs multās statuās spectat. fēlēs multās columnās spectat. fēlēs īnsulās et vīllās spectat...
vir intrat māgnōs hortōs. amīcus in māgnā vīllā in hortīs habitat. amīcus virum salūtat. vir in vīllā cum amīcō habitat.
