translated first.

24. deicerentur, part of the result clause.

26. arbitrati. See the note on 25, 27.

36. 5. Postridie eius diei, 'the next day,' more literally 'on the day

the fuller expression is simply more formal.

9. in ancoris, 'at anchor.'

10. haberent. See the note on 34, 6.

11. ex Argonautis. See the note on 33, 6.

13. Qui, 'he.' See the note on _quibus_, 20, 1.
