This test is the first in a series of Carpe Diem poems. This assessment will test the student's ability to translate the short poem, scan elegiac couplets, identify various verb forms, identify literary devices used, and compare Martial's work to that of an author from a later time.
This is the first in a series of poems which will also feature works by Calullus, Horace, Vergil, and Ausonius. All of which will be soon available at: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Latin-1-4
