The tac. saw us twice on this path, and he has us marked. "We didn't set the cannon crackers off; we didn't see anyone around the monument, and we don't know anything about it." "All true," nodded Dick. "But we'll have to say it in all the different styles of good English that we can think of."
IMPERIUM: so Verg. Georg. 1, 99 exercetque frequens tellurem atque imperat agris; ib. 2, 369 dura exerce imperia et ramos compesce fluentes; Tac. Germ. 26 sola terrae seges imperatur. SED ALIAS ... FAENORE: put for sed semper cum faenore, alias minore, plerumque maiore.
