proscribo
νήπιοι, οἷς ταύτῃ κεῖται νόος, οὐδὲ ἴσασιν ὡς χρόνος ἔσθ᾿ ἥβης καὶ βιότου ὀλίγος θνητοῖς. ἀλλὰ σὺ ταῦτα μαθὼν βιότου ποτὶ τέρμα ψυχῇ τῶν ἀγαθῶν τλῆθι χαριζόμενος → fools, to think like that and not realise that mortals' time for youth and life is brief: you must take note of this, and since you are near the end of your life endure, indulging yourself with good things | Poor fools they to think so and not to know that the time of youth and life is but short for such as be mortal! Wherefore be thou wise in time, and fail not when the end is near to give thy soul freely of the best.

II In partic.
A To publish any thing by writing (freq. and class.): ut quo die esse oporteret idus Januarias, eo die Calendas Martias proscriberet, Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 52, § 129: quam (legem) non is promulgavit, quo nomine proscriptam videtis, id. ib. 2, 5, 69, § 177: non proscriptā neque edictā die, id. ib. 1, 54, 141: venationem, id. Att. 16, 4, 1: leges, Tac. A. 13, 51: versiculos per vias, Gell. 15, 4, 3.—
(b) With obj.-clause: senatum Calendis velle se frequentem adesse, etiam Formiis proscribi jussit, Cic. Att. 9, 17, 1: proscribit se auctionem esse facturum, id. Quint. 4, 15; cf. Suet. Caes. 49.—
B To offer in writing any thing for sale, lease, or hire, or as to be sold by auction, to post up, advertise: proscribere palam sic accipimus, claris litteris, ut, etc., Dig. 14, 3, 11: Racilius tabulam proscripsit, se familiam Catonianam venditurum, Cic.

C To publish a person as having forfeited his property, to punish with confiscation, to confiscate one's property (cf. publico): quaero enim, quid sit aliud proscribere. Velitis, jubeatis, ut M.

Agr. 2, 36, 99: vicinos, to confiscate the lands of one's neighbors, id. ib. 3, 4, 14: possessiones, id. ib.: bona, Plin. Ep. 8, 18, 5.—

Rosc. Am. 6, 16: victoriā Sullae parentes, Sall. C. 37, 9: modus proscribendi, Suet.
