お前も私も一人にせず、且つお前に 少しの 罰を 与える 方法を考えてみた。

In this phrase I've some doubt about "一人にせず". Using google, I can translate it
as "not alone". But I read "せず" is a negative form of "する” and indicate that
one action took place without or in the absence of another action. But... It
seems senseless.

question
grammar translation
"一人にせず"? Meaning
`一人にする` means "leave (smb.) alone". So `一人にせず` could mean "without leaving
alone" or "not remaining alone".

To suggest a good translation for your quote we need more context.

answer
The sentence makes perfect sense.

Structure: "I have thought about a method that would achieve "Primary Goal"
while satisfying "Condition/Prerequisite"."

Primary Goal = お前に少しの罰を与える = "giving you a little punishment"

Condition/Prerequisite = お前も私も一人にせず = "without having to leave you or myself
alone"
