Chapter 30, Drill d: Practice using ablative of personal agent and ablative of means.

Each English phrase in parentheses is either an ablative of means or an ablative of personal agent. Translate correctly into Latin.

Examples:
navis (by Quintus) visa accedebat.
Answer: a Quinto , because it is personal agent.

miles (by a rock) vulneratus in via iacet. Answer: saxo , because it is means or instrument: the rock is not a person.

1. puer, (by a noise) territus, cucurrit.
2. puer, (by soldiers) territus, cucurrit.
3. Quinti adventus, (by Theomnestus) sensus, omnes delectavit.
