   • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Vergilius, Aeneis 2.585–586:

     “‘Extīnxisse nefās tamen et sūmpsisse merentīs / laudābor poenās [...].’”

     “‘Nevertheless, [for having] slain [such] an offender, and exacted [her] well-deserved punishments, I will be honored….’”

Conjugation

At least one use of the Old Latin "sigmatic future" and "sigmatic aorist" tenses is attested, which are used by Old Latin writers; most notably Plautus and Terence. The sigmatic future is generally ascribed a future or future perfect meaning, while the sigmatic aorist expresses a possible desire ("might want to").
