* They said they would not themselves share in the work.
* Give me a share of the money.
* We envy you your leisure.

* They desisted from battle.
* I admired him for his bravery.
* We will now go to the help of the allies.
* It is expedient for you to obey the king.
* I know that the Athenians have many ships.
* It is possible for us to attack the enemy, but it is wiser to wait.
* Are you willing to obey those who took our city by force?

* Whom did you meet there?
* I concealed the gold from them.
