09.09.24 Level 1; Maxey (13)[1]; text paragraphs 1 and 2; eō, īre

[1] Interdum hic discipulus nōn est bonus. Malus est et in scholā nōn bene labōrat. Hodiē magistra nōn est laeta. Maesta est. Puerum nōn laudat. Ubi discipulī ē scholā domum eunt, magistra ad sē puerum malum vocat et hoc dicit: “Tū, puer, nōn bene labōrās. Nunc tē sōlum labōrāre cupiō. Aquam in scholam portā.” Puer aquam portāre nōn cupit et sēcum, “Domum ire cupiō,” inquit. “Hanc magistram nōn amō.” Diū lacrimat. Ūnam hōram puer sōlus cum magistrā manet. Linguam Latīnam discit. Aquam portat. Fenestrās et iānuās claudit. Sed hōra longa nōn est puerō maestō grāta.

[2] Māter puerī domī puerum exspectat et ē fenestrā vocat. "Puer! Puer!” dīcit māter. Puer nōn respondet. Post ūnam hōram māter maesta ē tēctō ad scholam it quod vesper est et puer nōn est domī. Ibi puer stat et lacrimat.

“Cupisne mox bonus esse?” dīcit magistra. “Cupisne bene labōrāre? Ubi bene labōrās tē laudō.”

Puer magistram et mātrem maestam spectat. “Ita,” respondet puer sed sēcum, “Nunc domum īre cupiō,” dīcit.

Mox māter et fīlius domum eunt. Properant quod nox est et stellae et lūna sunt clārae.
