Episode 1.3: At the House of Caecilius

Bellātor ambulat ad lectum, et sedet

 

Tiberius Bellātōrem spectat. Tiberiī putat, "ō Bellātor, quid errās?"

 

Octāviāna mussat, "spectā Tiberium et Caecilium, ō frater stulte!"

 

Bellātor videt Tiberium et patrem, reclīnāntēs super lectīs.

 

spectat ad Octāviānam. "cūr reclīnant?" mussat. "nonne difficile est cēnāre? volō faciliter cibum meum comedere."

 

"quid errās?" inquit Octāviāna. "disce bonōs mōrēs!"

 

Bellātor reclīnat.

 

tandem servī trīclīnium intrant, multās patellās portāntēs.

 

"ah!" inquit Caecilius. "ecce gustātio!"

 

Octāviāna spectat patellās. illa ēsuriens est et cibum vult. una patella ōva habet. alia patella olīvās habet. servus quoque urnam habet.

 


 quid Octāviāna agit?

 

Option A: Octāviāna ōvum capit.

 

Option B: Octāviāna olīvam capit.

 

Option C: Octāviāna rogat ut servus fundat pōtiōnem in poculum

 

Option D: "grātiās agō," inquit Octāviāna, "sed volō cibum vērum."
