47. Read lines 11-14 (aloud if possible) or listen to the audio on the CSCP website.48. Study the vocabulary for these lines.49. Read lines 11-14 (or listen to the audio) again.50. Who did Quintus speak to, and what does his first word mean (line 11)?51. What are the cases of ego and haec (line 12)?52. What does Quintus say he has to do every day?53. What is Quintus referring to by the word haec?54. Which of these is the most natural translation of haec ego patior?(a) I put up with this(b) This is what I put up with55. According to Cicero, what was his own feeling about what had just happened (lines 12-13)? (If you are puzzledby motus, it is the perfect passive participle of a verb beginning mo-.)You may think it odd that the present tense of sum is used here to form a past tense; the reason is that theparticiple next to sum (motus) is a perfect participle having been upset. The participle is what makes motussum, etc. into a past tense (I am having been upset, i.e. I have been upset or I was upset). For more examplesof the way the perfect participle is used with parts of sum to show that something was done, or has been done,see the Cambridge Latin Grammar, page 31, paragraphs 2 and 3.You met a slightly different example of this in line 4 (profecti sumus) where the participle was from a deponentverb and so had a perfect active meaning (having set out); motus is not from a deponent verb and so it has aperfect passive meaning (having been upset).56. Why does Cicero add ipse to ego in recounting his distress (line 12)?(a) he is emphasising that he was upset even though he is normally very relaxed and laid-back(b) he is emphasising that he was upset even though he was not the person to whom Pomponia wasbeing rude.57. What is the case of hac re (line 12)? Which is the most suitable way of translating it, by, with or from? Makeyour mind up what Cicero is referring to by hac re before you choose a translation of res (“thing” won’t do!).58. Who is illa (line 13)?59. What two particular criticisms does Cicero make of the way Pomponia had replied to Quintus (lines 13-14)?What else, apart from her words, had aroused Cicero’s disapproval? Can you visualise her vultus at thatmoment? (Suggest a TV actress who would be good at demonstrating Pomponia’s vultus. If you enjoy acting,can you demonstrate the vultus yourself?)60.
