Please write on ALTERNATE LINES. QUESTION 1 To immortalise his uncle's death, Pliny describes it for the historian Tacitus. He explains what prompted his uncle's exploration and why he himself did not accompany him on the trip. He describes the composure he displayed as he sailed headlong into the disaster and the peaceful way in which he died. rogas ut tibi de exitio avunculi mei scribam; gratias ago.4 nam quamvis ipse plurima opera scripsit, video scriptorum tuorum immortalem gloriam morti eius datum iri, si celebretur a te.8 Miseni avunculus erat ubi classi praeerat.3 quodam die hora fere septima mater mea nubem inusitata magnitudine ex Vesuvio ortam esse monstrat.7 avunculo meo, eruditissimo viro, magnum et proprius cogcendum esse visum est.5 navem parari iubet; mihi facultatem, si venire vellem, dat; respondi studere me malle.6 simul ac egrediebatur domo, epistulam Rectinae subito periculo exterritae accepit.4 properat illo loco unde alii fugiunt in periculum ipsum sine metu.4 ubique nox erat: domus multis tremoribus nutabant et nunc huc, nunc illuc abire aut referri videbantur.7 Ubi dies redditus est, corpus ut fuerat indutus, inventum est;4 habitus corporis erat quiescenti quam mortuo similior.3 [Adapted from: Pliny, Epistulae VI, 16] IEB Copyright © 2017 PLEASE TURN OVER

When the temple was completed he was duped into sending the lampstand to Verres for inspection. Verres then succeeded in keeping the lampstand for himself. Cum rex Antiochus candelabrum, e gemmis clarissimis factum, Romam attulisset ut in Capitolio poneret, templum lovis nondum perfectum esse invenit.8 itaque id secum in Syriam reportare statuit ut, cum audisset templum lovis dedicatum iri,5 legatos mitteret cum ceteris rebus illud pulcherrimum donum in Capitolium allatum.5 haec res ad Verris aures pervenit.2 iste plurimis verbis petit a rege Antiocho ut id ad se mittat;5 dicit se inspicere cupere neque se aliis videndi potestatem esse facturum.4 Antiochus animo puerile nihil suspicatus est et suis imperat ut candelabrum involutum ad Verrem ferant.6 cum satis iam inspexisse videretur, tollere incipient ut referant4 sed iste ait se illud velle diutius inspicere illosque discedere iubet et candelabrum relinquere.6 [Adapted from Cicero, In Verrem II. v.63–65] Total: 100 marks IEB Copyright © 2017
