Aeneid 7

Question 0

vix illum lecti bis sex cervice subirent, 
qualia nunc hominum producit corpora tellus;

Answer 0

Scarcely twice six chosen [men], such bodies of men [as] the earth produces now, could support it on their neck.

Question 1

nec plura effatus saxum circumspicit ingens, 
saxum antiquum ingens, campo quod forte iacebat,
 limes agro positus litem ut discerneret arvis.

Answer 1

Not speaking more, he looks around at a huge rock, an ancient huge rock, which by chance was lying on the ground, placed [as] a boundary on the land, so that it might mark off a dispute in the fields.

Question 2

ille manu raptum trepida torquebat in hostem
altior insurgens et cursu concitus heros.

Answer 2

That hero, rising higher and swift in his running, having seized [it] with a hasty hand he tried to hurl it at his enemy.

Question 3

sed neque currentem se nec cognoscit euntem
 tollentemve manu saxumue immane moventem; 
genua labant, gelidus concrevit frigore sanguis.

Answer 3

But neither did he know himself running, nor going, or raising and casting the huge rock with his hand. His knees shake; chilled, his blood thickened with cold.

Question 4

tum lapis ipse viri vacuum per inane volutus
nec spatium evasit totum neque pertulit ictum.

Answer 4

Then that very stone of the man, tumbling through the empty void, neither passed over the whole space nor carried through a blow.
