  { After hungers were dispelled by the feast and the banquet was finished }
  {110}
  { CorrectedTranslation }
  { \begin{enumerate}
  	\item Occasionally poetry shortens ``postquam'' to ``post.'' Typically you
    will be expecting ``post'' + accusative. If you don't find the accusative,
    it's proabbly the poetic ``postquam.''
  \end{enumerate} }

		\item \textbf{deliberative}:  ``should we lead'': ``agamus?''
		\item Note that we're in indirect discourse, which is subject accusative +
    an infinitive. The accusative, ``vocat\={o}s'' occurs at the end of the
    line and needs to be carried back into the enumeration of their doubts
  \end{enumerate} }


\latline
  {s\={\macron {\i}}ve extr\={\macron {e}}ma pat\={\macron {\i}} nec jam exaud\={\macron {\i}}re voc\={\macron {a}}t\={\macron {o}}s.}

  { Also, Venus addressed that god, that god with a breast buffeted by so many cares }
  {190}
  { Venus addresses that god, tossing about such cares in breast  }
  { \begin{enumerate}
  	\item jacantem comes from jacto\={o}(1) meaning \emph{buffeted}. Thus from
    \textbf{jact\={a}ns/jactantis}. Juppiter is in the accusative (being
    addressed by Venus), thus the present, active participle modifies him,
    i.e. jactantem.
    \item jaci\={o}, jacere, jec\={\i}, jactum:  To throw
    \item jace\={o}, jac\={e}re, : to lie
    \item jact\={o}(1):  to buffet

  	\item suffused with tears with respect to eyes ––- cf. \textbf{Accusative of respect}
