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.
