Translation of a text from Latin into Italian and three short questions related to the submitted text.

[Correction Method]
The Italian translation of the Latin text is decisive for the outcome of the test: recognition and correct rendering of the main verbal, nominal and generally syntactic structures of the Latin language.
The answer to the three questions relating to the text can have a discriminating value only if the teacher is strongly in doubt about the evaluation of the translation.
