Galb. 4 aetate nondum constanti; pro Caelio 41 aetas iam corroborata; Fam. 10, 3, 2 aetas iam confirmata. MATURITAS: 'ripeness', i.e. of intellect or judgment. SUO: G. 295, Rem. 1; H. 449, 2. AUDIRE TE ARBITROR: 'I think that news reaches you'. HOSPES: see n. on 28 orator.
Even now, though it is five-and-twenty years ago, people remember Lady O'Dowd performing a jig at Government House, where she danced down two Aides-de-Camp, a Major of Madras cavalry, and two gentlemen of the Civil Service; and, persuaded by Major Dobbin, C.B., second in command of the th, to retire to the supper-room, lassata nondum satiata recessit.
Jam and nondum both have reference to the writer's progress in going over the tribes of Germany, those tribes growing less and less free as he advances eastward: already under more subjection than the foregoing tribes, but not yet in such abject slavery, as some we shall soon reach, sc. in the next chapter, where see note on jam. Supra. So as to trample down liberty and destroy it.
Come, O sleep! for thine are the joys of living and dying: Life without sorrow, and death with no anguish, no pain. From the German of Schmidt. No. 41. Si mutabile pectus Est tibi, consiliis, non curribus, utere nostris; Dum potes, et solidis etiam num sedibus adstas, Dumque male optatos nondum premis inscius axes. OVID. Met. ii. 143.
But the answer is in readiness: Fieri potest ut quidam nondum sint capaces rationis redditæ, qui idcirco quamvis ratio sit illis reddita, habendi sunt adhuc propusillis.

The mind of Spain seemed suddenly to have brightened and developed like that of her great king, who, in his first tourney at Valladolid, wrote with proud sluggishness Nondum not yet on his maiden shield, and a few years later in his young maturity adopted the legend of arrogant hope and promise, Plus Ultra. There were seen two emigrations of the young men of Spain, eastward and westward.
Phil. 189 αχω τηλεφανης; Cic. De Or. 2, 60 illorum tactu orationem meam quasi colorari. NESCIO QUO PACTO: literally, 'I know not on what terms'; quite interchangeable with nescio quo modo; cf. 82. ADHUC NON: purposely put for nondum, because more emphasis is thus thrown both on the time-word and on the negation.
Nondum amabam, sed amare amabam, quaerebam quod amarem, amans amare 'I loved not yet, but was in love with loving; I sought what I should love, being in love with loving. That sentence, penned by S. Augustine and consecrated by Shelley, describes the mood of Cherubino. He loves at every moment of his life, with every pulse of his being.
Charles changed his motto from Nondum to Plus ultra as he proceeded to send fleets across the ocean that the banner of Castile might float proudly on the distant shores of the Pacific. But the war with France was the real interest of the Emperor's life and he pursued it vigorously, obtaining supplies from the Spanish Cortes or legislative authority of Spain.
