[¶3 of 6] Ambulatōrēs silvam intrābant. Prope flumen sedēbant et inter sē conversatiōnēs habēbant. "Vesuvius ērumpēbat, ut scimus. Cinerēs urbem nostram tegēbant. Haec meminimus, sed postquam -- nihil, donec ē cineribus surgebāmus. Et nunc, necesse nōbīs est nec spirāre, nec edēre, nec bibere, nec dormīre. Nēmō nōs vulnerāre potest, quod nōn sanguinamus. Ille pirata, ubi nōs videbāt, perterritus erat. Cur? Pellēs nostrae color cineris sunt! Fortasse hic color pellis aliīs hominibus terret."
