When the pandemic hit, I signed up for Great Courses. The first one I took was Latin 101. Latin was the first foreign language I formally learned, taking two years in high school. IT was to be my doctoral language at UC-Irvine, served me well in seminary (Lutheran), and always intrigued me. Dr. H-F. Mueller taught the Great Course classes (I am taking his Greek 101 now).
He recommended this book for further study: https://www.amazon.com/Horace-Legamus-Transitional-Reader-Latin/dp/0865166765, which is where I worked through the gem above.
Here's an English translation:

I will post my reworked version later, giving of course due homage to Horace! Here's the original!
