This is from the key to North's Prose Composition:
Miles pauper aliquando mulum ducebat auro oneratum quod ad Alexandrem Magnum missum erat. tam fessus erat mulus ut …
Mulus is m. Why quod? As far as I can see, it should be:
… qui ad Alexandrem missus erat. …

Miles pauper aliquando mulum ducebat auro oneratum.
AURUM ad Alexandrem Magnum missum erat.
AURUM = quod
I'm guessing Alexander is more interested in the gold than in the mule!
