Translation in the comments
Patruus meus quondam praefectus
erat in Āfricā Merīdiānā. Nunc mīlitiā vacat, et agellō suō operam dat. Agellus
patruī meī nōn magnus est. Circum vīllam est hortus. Mūrus hortī nōn altus est.
Rīvus est prope hortum, unde aquam portāmus, cum hortum irrigāmus. In hortō
magnus est numerus rosārum et violārum. Rosae et violae tibi, mī patrue, magnam
laetitiam dant. Tū, Lȳdia, cum patruō meō in hortō saepe
ambulās.
My uncle was once an officer in South Africa. He is now
retired from the military, and gives his attention to his plot of land. My
uncle's plot of land is not big. There is a garden around the house. The garden
wall is not high. There is a stream near the garden, from where we carry water
when we water the garden. In the garden there is a great number of roses and
violets. Roses and violets give you great joy, my uncle. You, Lydia, often walk
with my uncle in the garden.
