I don’t know what the word quinque means in this sentence:
“Quinque ex natis se ex aqua traxerunt seque Caesari potenti commiserunt.”
I could use some help, it has had me baffled for a while now, help would be very appreciated.
Quinque always means “five” & it doesn’t decline 
so here, “five of the…”
…btw, what does “natis” mean?
Nothing, I forgot to put the “u” in, it shoud be nautis. Anyway, thanks very much.
I read “quinque” ‘[and] but indeed’, then when it did not make sense ‘why not …’
I should go home. 
natis would have meant “sons” or “daughters”, and Episcopus do go home!
