    Erm, so I'm supposed to answer these questions as like an induction to Latin thingy. Great?
    I will happily +rep anyone who can do this for me xD

    So first this text has to be read:

    Then the questions to answer on it (Latin Underlined):

    1. Where was the crowd gathered for the ceremony? Which three groups of people did Salvius and Quintus see there? (lines 2-5).

    2. I've done it xD

    3. I've done it xD

    4. bona est effiges. How did Salvius explain the good quality of the images? (lines 11-12).

    5. In lines 13-15, how did the different sections of the crowd behave?

    6. Why was the king accompanied by a boy? (lines 17-18).

    7. In lines 18-22 what two offerings did the king make? How did the priest assist in this ceremony?

    8. After the priest sacrificed their victims, what did the British chieftains do? (lines 25-26)

    9. Where was the image placed? (lines 28-30)

    10. servux regi facem traddit. What did the king do with the torch? What then happened to the image? (lines 30-32).

    11. In lines 33-34 why did the spectators applaud?

    12. What two things did the king say about Claudis (lines 35-36)? What did the aquila represent?
