Hi my teacher did the translation in class but it’s recommended that we know each word individually so we can work it out in the exam. Just need help with lines 285-287
‘atque animum nunc huc celerem nunc dividit illuc in partisque rapit varias perque omnia versat. haec alternanti potior sententia visa est:’
She translated it as ‘and he changes his mind quickly, now this way and now that way. He seized upon different options and considers all possibilities in his mind. This decision seemed preferable to him in his hesistation’ I changed the last sentence to this decision seemed preferable to him as he considered the alternatives.
I just want help know what words mean what like ‘different options’ or ‘considers all possibilities’ or ‘this decision’
