Exercise 67 - Caedes Christianorum

Post Christi adventum lux veritatis in mundo erat, sed Romani amici Christi et veritatis non erant. Christiani autem amici Christi erant. Erant multi Christiani in imperio Romanorum. Erant in portibus et in oppidis provinciarum et in silvis et in montibus. Erant in exercitu et in equitatu et in senatu. Erant servi et milites; erant matres et patres, Galli et Romani. Propter metum autem Christi Regis et propter nomen Dei Christianorum Romani Christianos occiderunt. Post caedem Christianorum, Romani non erant amici et servi Dei. Christiani autem, quod Romani Christianos propter legem Christi occiderunt, nunc in Caelo sunt cum Maria et Christo et gloriam Dei Patris vident. 

After the coming of Christ the light of truth was in the world, but the Romans were not friends of Christ and of the truth. Christians however were friends of Christ. There were many Christians in the empire of the Romans. They were in the harbors and in the towns of the provinces and in the forests and in the mountains. They are in the army and in the cavalry and in the senate. They were servants and soldiers; they were mothers and fathers, Gauls and Romans. On account of fear of Christ the king however and on account of the name of the God of the Christians the Romans slaughtered the Christians. After the slaughter of the Christians, the Romans were not friends and servants of God. Christians however, because the Romans slaughtered the Christians on account of the law of Christ, now are in Heaven with Mary and Christ and they see the glory of God the Father. 

Exercise 68 - The Conquest of Gaul 

The Gauls were not friends of Caesar and of the Senate. Therefore Caesar came into Gaul with the cavalry and the soldiers. The Gauls, however, on account of fear of Caesar, came into the forests and mountains. Caesar's army was in the forests of the enemy, and there were dangers. The Romans, however, made an attack upon the enemy. They killed the leaders and the leading men of the Gauls. They conquered the cavalry and the army of the Gauls, and fortified the harbors and the towns and the hills of Gaul. And so the Senate now praises Caesar on account of the fame of the war and the courage of the soldiers. On account of fear of the soldiers the Gauls are now friends and servants of the Senate. 

Galli non sunt amici Caesaris et senatus. Caesar itaque in Galliam cum equitatu et militibus venit. Galli autem propter metum Caesaris in silvas et montem venerunt. In silvas hostium exercitus Caesaris erant, et erant pericula. Romani, autem, in hostem impetum fecerunt. Duces et principes gallorum occiderunt. Equitatum et exercitum gallorum vicerunt, et portos et oppida et colles Galliae muniverunt. Ita Senatus nunc Caeasrem propter famae belli et virtutem militum laudant. Propter metum militum Galli sunt nunc amici et servi Senatus. 

Exercise 69 - God is Everywhere

'Deus spiritus est'. In Caelo et in terra est. Mundum videt. Homines videt. Milites et nautas et servos videt. Matres et patres et fratres et filios videt. Homines propter virtutem laudat sed propter caedem non laudat. 

God is spirit. In heaven and on earth he is. He sees the world. He sees men. He sees soldiers, and sailors, and servants. He sees mothers and fathers and brothers and sons. He praises men according to virtue but according to slaughter he does not praise.
