[*] 30.2. sibi curae （dat. of service, § 382. 1 (233. a); B. 191. 2. a; G. 356; H. 433 (390); H-B. 360 and b）: cf. 22 6, 22 15. [*] 30.3. et … et: construe after adductum, induced by both … and. — beneficio … auctoritate: the first refers to services which would inspire gratitude, the second to the prestige which would inspire fear in Ariovistus. [*] 30.5. secundum, in accordance with: lit. following. [*] 30.7. putaret: subjv. after qua re, which may be considered equal to propter quas = ut propter eas. — quod, because, or that. — Haeduos, subject of teneri below. [*] 30.8. appellatos （pred.）, who had been often called. [*] 30.11. quod: relative; the antecedent is the preceding clause Haeduos … Sequanos. [*] 30.14. periculosum: pred., agreeing with Germanos consuescere, etc., he saw it was dangerous to the Roman people for the Germans, little by little, to get in the way of crossing the Rhine, etc. [*] 30.15. sibi temperaturos quin exirent, would refrain [check themselves] from going forth. — sibi: § 367 (227); B. 187. ii. a; G. 346. 2; H. 426. 4 (385. i); H-B. 362. [*] 30.16. ut, as; fecissent being subjv. as dependent on exirent （§ 593 (342); B. 324; G. 663. 1; H. 652. 1 (529. II. N. 1, 1); H-B. 539）. — Cimbri Teutonique: these German tribes had been crushed by Marius （B.C. 102, 101）, after having been for several years a terror upon the Italian frontier. [*] 30.17. exirent: § 558 (319. d); B. 284. 3; G. 555; H. 595. 2 (504); H-B. 502. 3. b. [*] 30.18. [praesertim, etc.]: this clause makes good sense and may be translated. [*] 30.19. Rhodanus = only the Rhone. — rebus: dat. following occurrendum [sibi], § 370 (228); B. 187. iii; G. 347; H. 429 (386); H-B. 376: possibilities which he thought must be met at once. In this clause two things are to be noticed: first, that the Latin regularly puts an antecedent, which is in apposition with something preceding, in the relative clause, e.g. 'which kind,' not 'a kind which'; and, second, that a verb which governs the dat. cannot be used in the pass. with a personal subject. In both these respects the form must be altered in translating to suit the English idiom. [*] 30.21. ferendus, etc.: in Latin the negative has an attraction for the main verb. We should say, 'seemed unendurable,' connecting the negative with the adjective idea.
