Grammatica

Indirect statement (accusative and infinitive)

sē eōs posteā nōn vīsūrum esse

After a verb of saying such as respondit, the words reported are put in the infinitive, and its subject goes into the accusative (here sē, 'that he'). The future infinitive vīsūrum esse shows that the seeing would happen after the speaking.
