LAELIUS. Volumus sane, nisi molestum est, Cato, tamquam longam aliquam viam confeceris, quam nobis quoque ingrediundum sit, istuc, quo pervenisti, videre quale sit. III. 7 CATO. Faciam ut potero, Laeli. Saepe enim interfui querellis aequalium meorum, pares autem vetere proverbio cum paribus facillime congregantur, quae C. Salinator, quae Sp.
SAEPE ENIM: enim introduces a reason, not for the words ut potero, but for faciam 'I will grant your request because I have often heard complaints about old age and therefore have thought of the matter'. PARES AUTEM etc.: parenthetical.
Thyrsis declines to pronounce either conqueror: "Este pares: et ab hoc concordes vivite: nam vos Et decor et cantus et amor sociavit et aetas." The rhythm is pleasing; the style simple and flowing; and if we did not possess the model we might admire the copy. The tone of exaggeration which characterises all the poetry of Nero's time mars the reality of these pastoral scenes.
And in spite of the conviction that he had done his duty, the memory of his talk with Mrs. Constable never failed to make him, uncomfortable. Exasperation crept into Mr. Pares voice. "I can't think what's got into women in these times at Mrs. Constable's age they ought to know better. Nothing restrains them. They have reached a point where they don't even respect the Church.
In one of his caustic epigrams Dean Duport does indeed speak of the wool-combers as if there were a recognised calling that employed some numbers of men; but he is not complimentary to those employed, for he says that the men that comb the wool, and the sheep that bear it, are on a par as regards intelligence: "At vos simplicitate pares et moribus estis, Lanificique homines, lanigerique greges."
When things were looking darkest, Oliver Ellsworth and Roger Sherman suggested a compromise. "Yes," said Franklin, "when a joiner wishes to fit two boards, he sometimes pares off a bit from both."
As the 'Pares' of the empire, the Witenagemot decided' the disputes between the great vassals of the crown. The jurisdiction exercised in the Parliament of Edward I., when the barony of a Lord-Marcher became the subject of litigation, is entirely analogous to the proceedings thus adopted by the great council of Edward, the son of Alfred, the Anglo-Saxon king.
He is the Elect of the Senate the Senate of Letters whose Conscript Fathers have recognised him as primus inter pares; a post of pure honour and of no privilege. It is a good choice. First, because it is just, and next, because it is safe. The dignity will suffer no diminution in M. Anatole France's hands.
Commissary of police yawns more wearily than before, secretary disdains to use his pen, seizes his penknife and pares his nails.
Thenceforth, whenever a sovereign's offspring was numerous, it became customary to group them with the subject class under a family name. Nevertheless, to be divested of the title of "Prince" did not mean less of princely prestige. Such nobles were always primi inter pares. The principal uji thus created were Nagaoka, Yoshimine, Ariwara, Taira, and Minamoto.
