Here's the sentence: Cur pecuniam puero viso a te in Via Quinta non dedisti.
So far I have: Why didnt you give money to the boy(what does viso mean? it it an adjective)....by you in the fifth road?
It's kind of unclear, any help would be good
Also, we had to write this sentence in latin:" I departed from the province on account of the unhappy life which I led there"
I wrote it as:
Excessi ex provincia ob vitam miseram quam duxi ibi.
I know there are some mistakes, but I'm not sure where....

viso is from video and it is a participle(verbal adjective) modifying puero.
