exercise: analysis of verbs
exercise type: fill in the blanks

Caeli causa est expeditissima. Quid enim esset, in quo se non facile
defenderet? Nihil iam in istam mulierem dico; sed, si esset aliqua
dissimilis istius quae se omnibus pervolgaret, quae haberet palam decretum
semper aliquem, cuius in hortos, domum, Baias iure suo libidines omnium
commearent, quae etiam aleret adulescentes et parsimoniam patrum suis
sumptibus sustentaret; si vidua libere, proterva petulanter, dives effuse,
libidinosa meretricio more viveret, adulterum ego putarem, si quis hanc
paulo liberius salutasset?
