AP® Latin 2022 Free-Response Questions Question 3 (Suggested time — 45 minutes) Information written on this page will NOT be scored. (A) Line 5 10 15 Extemplo Libyae magnas it Fama per urbes, Fama, malum qua non aliud velocius ullum: mobilitate viget viresque adquirit eundo, parva metu primo, mox sese attollit in auras … Nocte volat caeli medio terraeque per umbram stridens, nec dulci declinat lumina somno; luce sedet custos aut summi culmine tecti turribus aut altis, et magnas territat urbes, tam ficti pravique tenax quam nuntia veri. Haec tum multiplici populos sermone replebat gaudens, et pariter facta atque infecta canebat: venisse Aenean Troiano sanguine cretum, cui se pulchra viro dignetur iungere Dido; nunc hiemem inter se luxu, quam longa, fovere regnorum immemores turpique cupidine captos. Haec passim dea foeda virum diffundit in ora. Aeneid 4. 173-176, 184-195 (B) Line 5 Tunc duces principesque Nerviorum qui aliquem sermonis aditum causamque amicitiae cum Cicerone habebant colloqui sese velle dicunt. Facta potestate eadem quae Ambiorix cum Titurio egerat commemorant: omnem esse in armis Galliam; Germanos Rhenum transisse; Caesaris reliquorumque hiberna oppugnari. Addunt etiam de Sabini morte: Ambiorigem ostentant fidei faciendae causa. Errare eos dicunt, si quicquam ab his praesidi sperent, qui suis rebus diffidant; sese tamen hoc esse in Ciceronem populumque Romanum animo, ut nihil nisi hiberna recusent atque hanc inveterascere consuetudinem nolint: licere illis incolumibus per se ex hibernis discedere et quascumque in partes velint sine metu proficisci. Bellum Gallicum 5. 41 The passages above show the transmission of crucial information in Vergil’s North Africa and Caesar’s Gaul. In a well-developed essay, analyze the messages and how they are conveyed in each passage. BE SURE TO REFER SPECIFICALLY TO THE LATIN THROUGHOUT THE PASSAGES TO SUPPORT THE POINTS YOU MAKE IN YOUR ESSAY. Do NOT simply summarize what the passages say. (When you are asked to refer specifically to the Latin, you must write out the Latin and/or cite line numbers AND you must translate, accurately paraphrase, or make clear in your discussion that you understand the Latin.)

Nec vero Alciden me sum laetatus euntem accepisse lacu, nec Thesea Pirithoumque, dis quamquam geniti atque invicti viribus essent.
