Episode 2.3: In the House of Marcus Maecenas

 

Bellātor ad mēnsam magnam ambulat et eam explōrat.

 

Bellātor lūmen in mēnsā videt. lūmen in aliquās tabellās lūcet. tabellae plūrimum scriptum habent. tabellae rēs negōtiī dēmonstrant. ūna tabella dē vīnō dīcit. vīnum ex Aegyptō venit.

 

est lapis parvus in mēnsā. Bellātor eum capit et inspicit. īdem lapis est quī erat in viā prope domum Sextī. Bellātor rīdet.

 

“ō Octāviāna,” inquit Bellātor, “Marcus putat: ‘hic est Lapis!’ sed errat. est rīdiculum!”

 

Octāviāna rīdet.

 

Bellātor ad mēnsam iterum spectat. est volūmen in mēnsā. Bellātor volūmen inspicit:

 

2.3 res gestae

 

“estne illud volūmen quod Sextus vult? dēbēmusne volūmen capere?” rogat Bellātor.

 

Octāviāna rēspondet, “nesciō.”

 


quid Recentiī agunt?

 

Choice A: Bellātor volūmen capit. Recentiī ē vīllā Marcī fugiunt.

Choice B: Octāviāna mēnsam parvam explōrat.
