名詞

cēra f (genitive cērae); first declension

1. wax, beeswax, honeycomb
   • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 3.747–748:

     audit in exēsa strīdōrem exāminis ulmō,
     aspicit et cērās dissimulatque senex

     [Silenus] hears the buzzing of a swarm in a hollowed-out elm tree,
     and the old man can see the honeycombs, yet he dissimulates [pretends as if he has found nothing].
     (Ovid's word play relates the ‘‘exesus’’ – the tree's ‘‘having been consumed’’ – with the ‘‘examen’’ or swarm, which Silenus mistakenly assumes are bees; instead, moments later when he looks inside the tree he is attacked by hornets.)

2. a wax seal
3. a wax image
