οὐ μακαριεῖς τὸν γέροντα, καθ' ὅσον γηράσκων τελευτᾷ, ἀλλ' εἰ τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς συμπεπλήρωται· ἕνεκα γὰρ χρόνου πάντες ἐσμὲν ἄωροι → do not count happy the old man who dies in old age, unless he is full of goods; in fact we are all unripe in regards to time

I a denying, refusal; a word formed by Pliny the Younger, for the Homeric ἀνένευσεν (Il. 16, 250): ego quoque simili nutu ac renutu respondere voto tuo possum, Plin. Ep. 1, 7, 2.
