   • c. 52 BCE, Julius Caesar, Commentarii de Bello Gallico 1.44:

     Si iterum experiri velint, se iterum paratum esse decertare; si pace uti velint, iniquum esse de stipendio recusare, quod sua voluntate ad id tempus pependerint.

     If they chose to attempt a second trial, he was ready to encounter them again; but if they chose to enjoy peace, it was unfair to refuse the tribute, which of their own free-will they had paid up to that time.

   • 44 BCE, Cicero, Epistulae ad Atticum 9.10.3:

     ut verum loquar, aetas iam a diuturnis laboribus devexa ad otium domesticarum me rerum delectatione mollivit. nunc si vel periculose experiundum erit, experiar certe ut hinc avolem. ante oportuit fortasse; sed ea quae scripsisti me tardarunt et auctoritas maxime tua.

     To speak the truth, in my declining years I am, after my long labours and softened by the comforts of domestic life, inclined to rest. But now, even if the experience is dangerous, I shall at any rate try to fly away. Perhaps I ought to have done so earlier; but the aforesaid considerations, and above all your advice, served to detain me.

   • c. 40 BCE, Cornelius Nepos, De viris illustribus XIV. Datames 2.3:

     is regi dicto audiens non erat. quam ob causam bello eum persequi constituit eique rei praefecit Datamen, propinquum Paphlagonis: namque ex fratre et sorore erant nati. quam ob causam Datames primum experiri voluit, ut sine armis propinquum ad officium reduceret. ad quem cum venisset sine praesidio, quod ab amico nullas vereretur insidias, paene interiit: nam Thuys eum clam interficere voluit.

     Because that man (Thuys) was disobedient to him, the king decided to wage war on him and entrusted Datames, who was related to the Paphlagonian and sibling with him, with this commission. So Datames wanted to make an attempt to get his relative back to obedience without using force of arms. However, when he went to him without a guard because he feared no pursuit from his friend, he almost perished; for Thuys intended to secretly murder him.

   • 8 CE, Ovidius, Fasti 4.814:
