  1. Good job! Almost no errors.

    The appositive in the assignment is
    Iovis et soror et coniunx (46-7) in apposition to ego (46).
    The other vocative in the passage is "regina," line 76.

    Scansion: you forgot to elide -um in the second and third lines. You have the impossible combination long-short-long in the second foot of line 2.
    "ill (um) exspirantem transfixo pectore flammas" is all spondees except for the 5th foot.
