uenisti huc?
ANTONIVS. Ante paucos
dies.
ALBERTVS. Quis tecum?

ALBERTUS. When did

you come here?
ANTONIUS. A few days
ago.
ALBERTUS. Who came
with you?
ANTONIUS. My father.
ALBERTUS. And then did
he go back to your own
region alone?
ANTONIUS. No, he had
one or two companions.

ANTONIVS. Pater meus.

ALBERTVS. Rediit ipse
deinde solus in patriam?
ANTONIVS. Non, sed
habuit comitem unum aut
alterum.
ALBERTVS. Qui isti
fuerunt?
ANTONIVS. Nostri
conciues fuerunt.
ALBERTVS. Militas in
schola sermonis Latini uel
Germanici?
ANTONIVS. Latinae
linguae.
ALBERTVS. Difficile est
Latinum addiscere
sermonem.
ANTONIVS. Consentio.
ALBERTVS. Nisi quis
semper loquatur Latine,
aegre addiscet.
ANTONIVS. Non dissentio.
ALBERTVS. Sed scisne
quare dicatur lingua Latina?
ANTONIVS. Credo quod
ab Italia, quae quondam
Latium est dicta.
ALBERTVS. Venit tunc ab
Italia lingua Latina ad nos
Germanos?
ANTONIVS. Ita, ignoras
illud?
ALBERTVS. Optime credo,
quia sermo Italorum est
medius Latinus.
ANTONIVS. Non aberras.
ALBERTVS. Sed cur Italia
olim dicta est Latium?
ANTONIVS. Quia poetae
scribunt, dum Saturnus a
suo filio Ioue e caelo esset
expulsus, tum latuit in
Italia; inde a latendo dicitur
64

Are you serving a

term in school of
language Latin or
German?
Of latin language.

ALBERTUS. Latin is hard

to learn.

Hard is Latin to
learn language.

ANTONIUS. I agree.
ALBERTUS. Youll hardly
learn Latin unless you
speak it all the time.
ANTONIUS. I cant
disagree.
ALBERTUS. But do you
know why the language is
called Latin?
ANTONIUS. From Italy, I
believe, which used to be
called Latium.
ALBERTUS. And then did
Latin come from Italy to us
Germans?
ANTONIUS. Yes, dont
you know that?
ALBERTUS. I can well
believe it, because Italian is
half Latin.
ANTONIUS. Youre not
wrong.
ALBERTUS. But why was
Italy called Latium in the
olden days?
ANTONIUS. Because the
poets write that when
Saturn was thrown out of
heaven by his son Jupiter,
he hid in Italy; then from
