Very tardily returning to add that the same Latin textbook, a few pages earlier, gives these English translations for the six cases of the example noun causa, "cause": "A cause — of a cause — to or for a cause — a cause — O cause, or thou cause — with, by, from a cause."
Compare to Alice's "A mouse — of a mouse — to a mouse — a mouse — O mouse!"
