271. DAED’ALUS AND IC’ARUS

Creta est insula antiqua quae aqua alta magni maris pulsatur.  Ibi olim Minos erat rex.  Ad eum venit Daedalus qui ex Graecia patria fugiebat.  Eum Minos rex benignis verbis accepit et ei domicilium in Creta dedit. [5]Quo in loco Daedalus sine cura vivebat et regi multa et clara opera faciebat.  Post tempus longum autem Daedalus patriam caram desiderare incepit.  Domum properare studebat, sed regi persuadere non potuit et mare saevum fugam vetabat.

[Footnote 5:  And in this place; quo\ does not here introduce a subordinate relative clause, but establishes the connection with the preceding sentence.  Such a relative is called a _connecting relative_, and is translated by _and_ and a demonstrative or personal pronoun.]
