4.1.11
-I will translate and then find the nouns-
Meanwhile the Sun remains rising from the the Ocean.
It chooses to bring youth at dawn;
A wide-meshed hunting net is brought out, bit broad-headed,
and the Massyli and their sharp-scented dogs rush forth with the subjects.
The queen was delaying in her bedchamber with the cheifs of the palace
awaiting her doom, in speldid purple and gold
he stands his charger, to restrain from fierceness he chews his frothy.
At last she comes forst with a great crowd crowding.
Because of the breeze she quivered, her hair is knotted witha golden clasp.
Hret purple and gold dress is bound with a clasp.
And not a Phyrigii was as joyful as proceeding Iulus.
Before Aeneas voluntarily apears as her companion,
all very beautiful other unite as one body.
Such as when Apollo visits a stormy Delos stream
and leaves Lyciam and Xanthia
and establish dance, and mingle around the altars,
and the Cretans and Dryope murmur to the Britsh and Scythian.
Take steps to join the self together at Cynthus and soften with water.
To handle putting leaves pressed in the hair, entwine the ear.
To dampen a noise: that by no means walk sluggishly.
Aeneas; To gleam so extraordinary in slendid gold.

Pros and Cons of Respect
RESPECT
Respect can be both a good and annoying thing. Some of the Pro's of respect are that you can learn, or advance in society because you respect someone. You can also gain their respect, and then you will feel good about yourself. Also, if you respect someone, you may influence others and then everyone will be happy. Finally, if you respect someone, then they will generally respond in a positive manner and you will not be unhappy for the rest of the day.
Some of the cons of respect are basic. First, sometimes you may be forced to respect someone you don't, because of our society today, even when they don't respect you rightfully back. Also, you may be in the middle of something when you are forced to respect someone else because you are feel obligated. Furthermore, you may be forced to compromise your integrity when speaking to someone you don't respect so you can get along in life. Lastly, respect is a demanding thing. You can hope that it will work, or you can shrug it off and not try because you really don't want to be respectful to certain people.
Thanks for listening,

Marcus Flavius Aquila
Marcus Flavius Aquila is a Centurion with high goals. He grew up near Clusium with his mother. When she died, he had no choice but to live with his aunt and his loathed uncle. You see, his father disappeared with the Ninth Legion, The Ninth Hispania, along with the eagle standard, resulting in endless harassment for him. He was quickly fitting in the Frontier Fort when he met Cradoc, a charioteer also at the frontier fort. After remembering well he performed at the Saturnalia games, Marcus claims to be the best in his Legion. Accepting the challenge, Cradoc wagered his hunting-spear against Marcus's brooch. After fulfilling his word, Marcus walked away with a new boar-spear. This story display's Marcus' abilities and shows the strength of his character.
