The Roman commander Caesar tells how Ganymedes pollutes the Romans’ water supply in an attempt to force them out of their part of the city of Alexandria. Ganymedes, however, is thwarted by Caesar himself. Alexandria multos specus1 habet. per hos aqua a flumine Nilo2 in domos civium ducitur. illa omnes familiae3 uti solent. nam tota in urbe fons nullus est. Romani quoque aqua ex specibus1 extracta utebantur. Ganymedes4 igitur putavit se, aqua corrupta5, tandem illos ex urbe discedere coacturum esse. itaque aquam salsam6 ex mari collectam in specus1 fundebat7, qui in eam partem urbis ducebant, ubi Romani erant. mox Romani, postquam aquam suam salsiorem6 solito8 esse senserunt, inter se rogabant cur id accidisset. brevi vero tempore, cum aquam nullo modo bibere9 possent, magnopere timere coeperunt et, sicut10 Ganymedes4 speraverat, quam celerrime in navibus fugere volebant. Caesar tamen milites suos hortatus est: ‘nolite timere. vos iubeo hic manere et, ceteris operibus relictis, multis in locis puteos fodere11.’ quem laborem tanto studio susceperunt12 ut magna copia13 aquae dulcis eodem die inventa sit. ita Caesar paucarum horarum labore Ganymedis4 consilio occurrit14. based on CAESAR, de Bello Alexandrino, 5–9 1specus, specus (m) = underground channel 2Nilus, Nili (m) = the Nile 3familia, familiae (f) = household 4Ganymedes, Ganymedis (m) = Ganymedes, commander of the Alexandrian army 5corrumpo, corrumpere, corrupi, corruptum = I pollute, spoil 6salsus, -a, -um = salty 7fundo, fundere = I pour 8 solito = than usual 9bibo, bibere = I drink 10sicut = just as 11puteum fodio, fodere = I dig a well 12suscipio, suscipere, suscepi, susceptum = I undertake 13copia, copiae (f) = amount, supply 14occurro, occurrere (+ dative) (here) = I thwart, foil [40]

King Perseus, faced with the sudden arrival of an invading Roman army, panics and gives orders that he later regrets. rex Perseus, ubi nuntiatum est ei hostes advenisse, per castra cucurrit se sine pugna victum esse clamitans1. perterritus duos ex amicis elegit2, quorum Niciam3 Pellam4 misit ut totam pecuniam, quae ibi deposita erat, in mare iaceret, et Andronicum3 Thessalonicam4 misit ut navalia5 incenderet. sed paucis post diebus, quod non iam timebat, sententia mutata6 sperabat amicos sibi haec imperanti non paruisse. Andronicus3 vero diu moratus erat7; putabat enim regem sententiam mutaturum esse6. Nicias3 autem, qui incautior8 erat, pecuniam in mare iam iecerat; quae tamen ab urinatoribus9 paene omnis extracta est. sed tantus pudor10 regi erat propter metum eius ut amicos clam11 interfici iusserit, ne quis12 tam stulti consilii conscius13 viveret.

[7] [Total: 140 to be multiplied by 217 = 40] Specimen Translation of Section A (though there are numerous acceptable ways of translating the passage). Alexandria has many underground channels. Through these water is led from the river Nile into the houses of the citizens. All households are accustomed to use that. For there is not one spring in the whole city. The Romans also used water drawn from underground channels. Ganymedes therefore thought that, after polluting their water, he would compel them at last to leave the city. And so he poured salt water collected from the sea into the underground channels which led into that part of the city where the Romans were. Soon the Romans, after they noticed that their water was saltier than usual, asked among each other why that had happened. Indeed, in a short time, when they could in no way drink the water, they began to be greatly afraid and, just as Ganymedes had hoped, wished to flee on the ships as quickly as possible. Caesar however encouraged his men: 'Do not be afraid. I order you to stay here and, after abandoning your other tasks, dig wells in many places.' They undertook this task with such great enthusiasm that a large supply of sweet water was discovered on the same day. Thus Caesar thwarted Ganymedes' plan with a few hours' work.
