  3. B. Further examples: • tam stultus erat dominus ut omnes servi eum deriderent. • tantus erat clamor ut nemo iussa centurionum audiret. • agricola tot milites emisit ut hostes fugerent. • centurionem adeo timebam ut ad castra redire non auderem. • tot servos habebas ut eos numerare non posses. • ancillae nostrae tam diligenter laborabant ut eas saepe laudaremus.
