Sample Unseen Passage:
Accurately translate the following passage in which Coriolanus…
Rōma bellum in Volscōs1 diū gesserat. Coriolānus bonus dūx2 virque virtūtis magnae*
erat. Is unam urbem Volscōrum citō3 vīcit et populus Rōmānus eum propter hanc
victōriam dīligēbat. Coriolānus ipse autem nūllam amōrem cīvibus multīs habēbat et
cōnsilia mala contrā4 eōs faciēbat. Cōnsulēs Coriolānum in exsilium5 propter ista vitia
mīsērunt.
Coriolānus ad Volscōs fūgit et sē suō hostī6 commīsit. Coriolānus dīxit, “Si meam vītam
servābis, ego ipse tuās copiās ad portās Rōmae dūcam.” Verba eius hostem satiāverunt.
Ubi Volscī Coriolānusque ad urbem vēnerant, mātrem Coriolānī aliāsque fēminās in viā
vīdērunt. Virtūs hārum animum Coriolānī mūtāvit et is bellum gerere nōn poterat. Itaque
fēminae Rōmam servāvērunt.
*note genitive absolute
Rome had waged war against the Volsci for a long time. Corialanus was a good ruler
and man of great virtue. He defeated the city of the Volsci quickly and the Roman
people were loving him on account of this victory. Corialanus himself, however, was
having no love for many citizens and he was making bad plans against them. The
Consuls sent Coriolanus into exile on account of these faults of his.
Coriolanus has fled to the Volsci and he has entrusted himself to his own enemy.
Coriolanus said, “If you will save my life, I myself will lead your troops to the gates of
Rome.” The words of him have satisfied the enemy. When the Volsci and Coriolanus
had come to the city, Coriolanus has seen the mother of Coriolanus and the other
women in the street. The courage of these women moved the mind of Coriolanus,
and he was not able to wage war. And thus the women have saved Rome.
Volscī, -ōrum, m. - the Volsci, a Latin tribe
dūx, dūcis, m. - leader
3
citō, adv. - quickly
4
contrā, prep. + acc. - against
5
