Ecce Romani chapter 15 translation

Answer 1

Now it was the ninth hour. The carriage was still stuck motionless in the ditch. But to do nothing was boring Sextus, for he was an active boy. Therefore, he suddenly runs to the carriage and opens a chest. Then he takes a ball out of the chest.

"Do you want to play ball, Marcus?" he shouts. He immediately throws the ball to Marcus. Marcus catches it and sends it (back) to Sextus. Again and again the boys were throwing the ball, one to the other. Then Sextus, who always wants to annoy Cornelia, throws the ball as a prank and hits Cornelia.

Immediately Cornelia turns angrily toward her mother and shouts, " Why does Sextus always annoy me, mother? Why does he throw a ball at me? How trouble some a boy Sextus is!"

"Come to me, dearest," replies her mother and holds her daughter in an embrace. "Sextus was not intending to hit you. He is an active boy, a reckless boy, however he is not a wicked boy."

"But why does Sextus live with us?" asks Cornelia, who is still angry. "Why did Sextus's father send him to us?"

"Sextus's father is traveling to Asia. Because his father is away, it was necessary to leave behind Sextus in Italy. And so therefore, Because Sextus's father is your father's friend, Sextus remains with us."

"However, what about Sextus's mother?" asks the daughter. "Why does she not look after her son?"

"Alas!" replies Aurelia. "Sextus's mother, as you know now, is dead. Sextus does not have a mother." Cornelia was quiet, she was no longer moved to anger.

However at that very moment Sextus exclaims, "Do you want to play with us, Cornelia? Although you are a girl, perhaps you are able to throw the ball." While he was shouting, he was now laughing and running. Again Cornelia was angry, "Go away, troublesome boy!" she shouted. "I do not want to play ball.

While the carriage remains in the ditch, Marcus and Sextus expected a vehicle. There was a long silence.

For a long time they did not see a vehicle. At last Marcus hears the murmuring of the wheels and far away he sees a cloud of dust.

Sextus, "What is it, Marcus? Is it a wagon?"

Marcus, "No, fat head! Moreover, horses drag that vehicle. Oxen drag the wagon. Perhaps it's the carriage."

Answer 3

While the carriage remains in the ditch, Marcus and Sextus look out for vehicles. There was a long silence... For a long time no vehicles appear. At last Marcus hears the murmur of wheels and catches sight of a cloud of dust in the distance. Sextus says, ‘what is it, Marcus? Is it a wagon?’ Marcus replies, ‘no, silly! Wagons carry a large load. Therefore, it is slow. But, that carriage is approaching quickly.’ Sextus says, ‘yes! Besides, that vehicle is drawn by a horse. The ox drag the wagon. Perhaps it is a carriage.’ ‘It is not a carriage’ says Marcus. A carriage doesn’t have four wheels. That vehicle only has two wheels.’ ‘It is a two-wheeled carriage!’ shouts Sextus. ‘Look, Marcus! How quickly it approaches! Perhaps it’s another courier.’ ‘No, Sextus!’ responds Marcus. ‘It is not a courier. Couriers usually wear tunics. He wears a toga. Perhaps it is a driver who is travelling to the city of Naples.’ The two-wheeled carriage goes past. At that time they see only a cloud of dust and hear the murmur of wheels. Finally silence.
