PART ONE
Paucīs ante diēbus
Iūlia epistulam accēpit. Amīca Iūliae quae in urbe habitat eam vidēre maximē
vult. Itaque māter Carolī et Mariae ad tēctum amīcae invītātur. Laeta est quod
diū amīcam nōn vīdit. Quamquam via est longa et paucōs diēs aberit, iter facere
cōnstituit.
Tandem omnia sunt
parāta et Iūlia ā casā discēdit et ad urbem prōcēdit. Nunc nēmō est in casā.
Omnēs absunt. Pater in nāvigiō est. Per noctēs Carolus cum Cassiō, Maria cum
Helenā manet. Itaque nocte nēmō domī est. “Eruntne omnia tūta?” rogat Maria.
“Ita,” respondet māter, quod Claudius saepe hūc ex oppidō veniet et casam
dēfendet. Nōn est necesse timēre. Deinde iānuam casae claudit.
