24.01.25: Level 1; oral proficiency in Latin [2](3); vocabulary

Trēs Cūriātiī vulnerātī circum ūnum Horātium stābant. Albānī victōriam facilem exspectābant. Sed ūnus Horātius erat vir fortis et prūdēns. Subitō ā Cūriātīīs celeriter cucurrit et fugam simulāvit. Rōmānī erant trīstēs et sēcum dīcēbant, “Cūr Horātius noster fugit? Estne perterritus?”Horātius autem nihil timēbat. Trāns agrum festīnābat; post eum trēs Cūriātiī cum difficultāte currēbant. Inter Cūriātiōs erant magna intervālla. Subitō Horātius sē convertit et prīmum Cūriātium interfēcit deinde alterum. Iam erat sōlus ūnus Albānus, quem dēfessum et vulnerātum sine difficultāte interfēcit Horātius.
