Comments: Two verb tenses (present indicative active, imperfect indicative active) for all four verb endings, plus 'to be', seems a touch much for one chapter. I'm enjoying the Latin -> English translation, but I have the sinking feeling that this book isn't going to be offering any English -> Latin translation at all, which is a pity. I find it very useful for understanding.
(Corrections of sentences I got wrong are in bold above. I am somewhat annoyed that I've already discovered an error in the answer key: pugnabant does not mean listened.)
