KM Latin 11 CHAPTER∏ 1 PERSEUS BY FRANCIS RITCHIE ∏SECTION 1 The Ark
Haec narrantur a poetis de Perseo. Perseus filius erat
Iovis, maximi deorum; avus eius Acrisius appellabatur.
Acrisius volebat Perseum nepotem suum necare; nam propter oraculum puerum timebat. Comprehendit igitur
Perseum adhuc infantem, et cum matre in arcā ligneā (5) inclusit. Tum arcam ipsam in mare coniecit. Danae, Persei mater, magnopere territa est; tempestas enim magna mare turbabat. Perseus autem in sinu matris dormiebat.

Iuppiter tamen haec omnia vidit, et filium suum servare constituit. Tranquillum igitur fecit mare, et arcam ad insulam Seriphum perduxit. Huius insulae Polydectes tum rex erat. Postquam arca ad litus appulsa est, Danae in harena quietem capiebat. Post breve tempus a (5) piscatore quodam reperta est, et ad domum regis Polydectis adducta est. Ille matrem et puerum benigne excepit, et iis sedem tutam in finibus suis dedit. Danae hoc donum libenter accepit, et pro tanto beneficio regi gratias egit.

Perseus igitur multos annos ibi habitabat, et cum matre suā vitam beatam agebat. At Polydectes Danaen magnopere amabat, atque eam in matrimonium ducere volebat. Hoc tamen consilium Perseo minime gratum erat. Polydectes igitur Perseum dimittere constituit. Tum iuvenem ad se (5) vocavit et haec dixit: "Turpe est hanc ignavam vitam agere; iam dudum tu adulescens es. Quo usque hīc manebis?
Tempus est arma capere et virtutem praestare. Hinc abi, et caput Medusae mihi refer."

Perseus ubi haec audivit, ex insula discessit, et postquam ad continentem vēnit, Medusam quaesivit. Diu frustra quaerebat; namque naturam loci ignorabat. Tandem
Apollo et Minerva viam demonstraverunt. Primum ad
Graeas, sorores Medusae, pervēnit. Ab his talaria et (5) galeam magicam accepit. Apollo autem et Minerva falcem et speculum dederunt. Tum postquam talaria pedibus induit, in aera ascendit. Diu per aera volabat; tandem tamen ad eum locum vēnit ubi Medusa cum ceteris Gorgonibus habitabat.
Gorgones autem monstra erant specie horribili; capita (10) 5 ∏SECTION 5 The Gorgon’s Head
Res difficillima erat caput Gorgonis abscidere; eius enim conspectu homines in saxum vertebantur. Propter hanc causam Minerva speculum Perseo dederat. Ille igitur tergum vertit, et in speculum inspiciebat; hōc modo ad locum venit ubi Medusa dormiebat. Tum falce sua caput (5) eius uno ictu abscidit. Ceterae Gorgones statim e somno excitatae sunt, et ubi rem viderunt, irā commotae sunt.
Arma rapuerunt, et Perseum occidere volebant. Ille autem dum fugit, galeam magicam induit; et ubi hoc fecit, statim e conspectu earum evasit. (10) 6 SECTION 6 periculo extrahere, atque ob eam causam imperata ∏ Hammonis facere constituit. The Sea-Serpent
Post haec Perseus in fines Aethiopum vēnit. Ibi
Cepheus quidam illo tempore regnabat. Hic Neptunum, maris deum, olim offenderat; Neptunus autem monstrum saevissimum miserat. Hoc cotidie e mari veniebat et homines devorabat. Ob hanc causam pavor animos (5) omnium occupaverat. Cepheus igitur oraculum dei
Hammonis consuluit, atque a deo iussus est filiam monstro tradere. Eius autem filia, nomine Andromeda, virgo formosissima erat. Cepheus ubi haec audivit, magnum dolorem percepit. Volebat tamen cives suos e tanto (10) 7 SECTION 7 iniecit. Monstrum magnā celeritate ad litus contendit, (10) ∏ iamque ad locum appropinquabat ubi puella stabat. A Human Sacrifice
Tum rex diem certam dixit et omnia paravit. Ubi ea dies vēnit, Andromeda ad litus deducta est, et in conspectu omnium ad rupem adligata est. Omnes fatum eius deplorabant, nec lacrimas tenebant. At subito, dum monstrum exspectant, Perseus accurrit; et ubi lacrimas (5) vidit, causam doloris quaerit. Illi rem totam exponunt et puellam demonstrant. Dum haec geruntur, fremitus terribilis auditur; simul monstrum horribili specie procul conspicitur. Eius conspectus timorem maximum omnibus

At Perseus ubi haec vidit, gladium suum eduxit, et postquam talaria induit, in aera sublatus est. Tum desuper in monstrum impetum subito fecit, et gladio suo collum eius graviter vulneravit. Monstrum ubi sensit vulnus, fremitum horribilem edidit, et sine morā totum corpus in aquam (5) mersit. Perseus dum circum litus volat, reditum eius exspectabat. Mare autem interea undique sanguine inficitur. Post breve tempus belua rursus caput sustulit; mox tamen a Perseo ictu graviore vulnerata est. Tum iterum se in undas mersit, neque postea visa est.

Perseus postquam ad litus descendit, primum talaria exuit; tum ad rupem vēnit ubi Andromeda vincta erat. Ea autem omnem spem salutis deposuerat, et ubi Perseus adivit, terrore paene exanimata erat. Ille vincula statim solvit, et puellam patri reddidit. Cepheus ob hanc rem (5) maximo gaudio adfectus est. Meritam gratiam pro tanto beneficio Perseo rettulit; praeterea Andromedam ipsam ei in matrimonium dedit. Ille libenter hoc donum accepit et puellam duxit. Paucos annos cum uxore suā in eā regione habitabat, et in magno honore erat apud omnes (10) 10 SECTION 10 Perseus caput Medusae monstravit; ille autem (10) ∏ simul atque hoc vidit, in saxum versus est. Polydectes is Turned to Stone
Postquam Perseus ad insulam navem appulit, se ad locum contulit ubi mater olim habitaverat, sed domum invēnit vacuam et omnino desertam. Tres dies per totam insulam matrem quaerebat; tandem quarto die ad templum
Dianae pervēnit. Huc Danae refūgerat, quod (5)
Polydectem timebat. Perseus ubi haec cognovit, irā magnā commotus est; ad regiam Polydectis sine morā contendit, et ubi eo vēnit, statim in atrium inrupit. Polydectes magno timore adfectus est et fugere volebat. Dum tamen ille fugit,

Post haec Perseus cum uxore suā ad urbem Acrisi redivit. Ille autem ubi Perseum vidit, magno terrore adfectus est; nam propter oraculum istud nepotem suum adhuc timebat. In Thessaliam igitur ad urbem Larisam statim refugit, frustra tamen; neque enim fatum suum vitavit. (5)
Post paucos annos rex Larisae ludos magnos fecit; nuntios in omnes partes dimiserat et diem edixerat. Multi ex omnibus urbibus Graeciae ad ludos convenerunt. Ipse Perseus inter alios certamen discorum inivit. At dum discum conicit,

Deinde quaeque dea The Judgement of donum pastori obtulit. Iuno, regina deorum, (15) Paris potestatem insuper omnes gentes obtulit. Minerva “Te bellatricem faciam,” dixit, quod ea erat dea sapientiae atque belli.

Tandem ad Iovem iverunt et rogaverunt “Quis Spartam navigavit. inter nos est pulcherrima?” Iuppiter respondere recusavit.
Ille “Invenite Paridem, filium Priami regis et (10) pastorem in campis Troianis” inquit.

Troiani vela candida ventis (15) Adapted from Julia by Maud Reed secundis dederunt, et trans mare Troiam properaverunt.
Mane, ubi Menelaus ad cubiculum uxoris vēnit, Helenam invenire non poterat. Ille fiebat iratissimus, et ad fratrem Agamemnonem statim contendit. In Graeciā fratres duo, Agamemnon et Menelaus nomine, olim habitabant. Graeci fratres Atridas vocabant, quod Atrei filii erant. Agamemnon omnium Argivorum rex erat. Menelaus Lacedaemonios regebat. Helena, uxor Menelai, praeclara et formosa regina, cum viro in regiā (5) multos annos habitabat.
Paris cum multis comitibus ad regiam Menelai Spartae vēnit. Manens in regiā, tandem Paris reginam conspexit. Simul ac Helenam vidit, eam amavit et rapere volebat. Post multos dies gratus reginae animo fiebat princeps (10) formosus. Quamquam perfidus et ignavus erat princeps,
15 SECTION 3 Graeci aberant: Ulixes, rex Ithacae, et Achilles, fortissimus ∏ omnium Graecorum. Agamemnon nuntium ad Ithacam misit. Ulixes, qui (15) The Greeks Prepare for filiolum infantem habebat, ad bellum ire nolebat. Insanus War igitur videri temptabat. Ubi nuntius ad Ithacam advēnit, Adapted from Julia by Maud Reed Ulixem arenas in litore arare conantem conspexit.

16 feminiae gemmas et vestes cupiebant, set Achilles gladium cepit.
“Achilles!” clamavit Ulixes. “Agamemnon te arcessivit. Venī ad oram nobiscum.” Deinde Achilles et Ulixes ad oram iverunt et ceteros milites iunxerunt. (35)

Libenter ad Manes descendam; morte meā Rex, ubi responsum oraculi audivit, diu secum Graecos milites et Graeciam patriam conservabo. Ita et lacrimabat. “Est mihi domi,” inquit, “filia cara, (10) Inferi et Superi me in summo honore habebunt quia (30) Iphigeneia nomine, puella sedecim annorum. Sine dubio libenter pro patriā e vitā excessero.” Dixit Iphigeneia, et Diana Iphigeneiam victimam petit. Dira et crudelis est Dea; vultu sereno ad aram processit, et vitam cum sanguine
18 fudit. Graeci igitur, simul ac numen Dianae sanguine virginis placatur, vela candida vento secundo dant, et Troiam navigant ut urbem Dardanorum obsideant. (35)
