est mihi tanti, it is worth my while: § 417 (252, a); cf. B. 203, 3; G. 380, I, R.; H. 448 (404); H.-B. 356, I.

depellatur: § 528(314); B. 310,ii; G.573; H. 587(313,i); H.-B. 529.

aliquando, some day.

quod. . . emiserim: § 592, 3 (341, d); B. 323; G. 541; H. 588, ii (516, ii); H-B. 535, 2, a.

emiserim, eiecerim, let him go... drove him out
