In castris est copia omnium rerum. In the camp is a supply of all things. 

Milites castra in colle posuerunt sed non in silvis. The soldiers placed the camp on the hill but not in the forest. 

In castra agmen cum impedimentis venit. In the camp comes the army on the march with baggage. 

Hostes autem impetum in castra fecerunt, sed copiae Romanorum hostes vicerunt. However the enemies made an attack against the camp, but the troops of the Romans conquered the enemies. 

Nunc imperator milites et duces propter virtutem laudat, et duces propter victoriam gratias militibus agunt. Now the commander praises the soldiers and leaders on account of virtue, and the leader give thanks to the soldiers on account of victory. 

Propter victoriam imperator in gratiam cum senatu venit. On account of victory the commander comes in thanks with the senate. 

Exercise 77 - Vae Victis! (Woe to the Conquered!)

Galli erant hostes Romanorum. 

Itaque Romani cum copiis in Galliam venerunt et castra posuerunt. 

In castris erant milites et equitatus et servi et militum impedimenta. 

Copia gladiorum in castris erat. 

Erant acies in collibus et montibus et silvis. 

Galli in Romanos impetum fecerunt;

Romani autem in Gallos impetum fecerunt. 

Romani spem victoriae in virtute posuerunt; 

Galli spem salutis in virtute posuerunt. 

Romani autem Gallos vicerunt; 

partem principum et ducum Gallorum occiderunt;

portus et oppida Gallorum ceperunt. 

Itaque Galli copiam gladiorum et servorum Romanis dederunt. 

Post bellum erat pax in Gallia, sed erant castra Romanorum in Gallia et Galli servi Romanorum erant. 

Imperator Romanorum erat Caesar. 

Senatus propter victoriam et militum virtutem Caesarem et exercitum laudat, et Romani Caesari gratias agunt.
