A Lit.: juvenci diebus paucis erunt mansueti, Varr. R. R. 1, 20, 2: sus, Liv. 35, 49: cum (apes) sint neque mansueti generis, neque feri, Plin. 11, 5, 4, § 12: stabula, i. e. mansuetarum pecudum, Grat. Cyn. 164.—
B Trop., mild, soft, gentle, quiet, etc. (syn. mitis; opp. ferus): illud quaero, cur tam subito mansuetus in senatu fuerit, cum in edictis tam fuisset ferus, Cic. Phil. 3, 9, 23: amor, Prop. 1, 9, 12: manus, id. 3, 14, 10: malum, Liv. 3, 16: litora, tranquil, not stormy, Prop. 1, 17, 28.—Comp.: ut mitior mansuetiorque fiat, Asellio ap. Prisc. p. 668 P.: nam me jam ab orationibus dijungo fere, referoque ad mansuetiores Musas, Cic. Fam. 1, 9, 23: ira, Ov.
