6. vinclis, for _vinculis_.
8. viris. Let the quantity of the first _i_ tell you from what nominative this word comes. 11. sibi proficiscendum. See the note on _maturandum sibi_, 42, 12. 13. iam profecturo, 'as he was now about to set out.' 16. naviganti, 'to one sailing.' 25. mirabantur, 'had been wondering.' With iam dudum and similar expressions the imperfect denotes action begun some time before and still going on at the given past time. This is similar to the use of the present already commented on (see the note on _es_, 4, 1). 28. celata, plural because of the plural expression aurum et argentum. 57. 1. venti, subject of ruunt and perflant. 2. velut agmine facto, 'as if formed in column.' 3. data. _Est_ is omitted. 10. proiecissent. See the note on _accepissent_, 26, 21. 13. in terram egrediendum esse, 'that a landing must be made.' 18. quam, an adverb modifying crudeli. |
