   • 166 BCE, Publius Terentius Afer, Andria 675–678:

     DĀVUS: Ego, Pamphile, hōc tibi prō servitiō dēbeō: / cōnārī — manibus pedibus noctēsque et diēs! — / capitis perīclum adīre, dum prōsim tibi! / Tuum est sī quid praeter spem ēvenit mihi ignōscere.

     DAVUS: Pamphilus, this is my duty to you, in my servitude: to try — with hands and feet, night and day! — to face the risk of my own life, as long as I may be of service to you! Yours is to pardon me if what happens is not what [we] wanted.
     (In context, Davus comically overstates his services in order to oblige the mercy of Pamphilus.)

   • c. 52 BCE, Julius Caesar, Commentarii de Bello Gallico VII.12:

     [...] quō ex oppidō cum lēgātī ad eum vēnissent ōrātum ut sibi ignōsceret suaeque vītae cōnsuleret [...]

     [...] when envoys had come to him from that town to beg that he himself would forgive them and spare their lives [...]

   • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 6.443–444:

     haurit aquās tollēnsque manūs, ‘ignōscite,’ dīxit
     ‘sacra! vir intrābō nōn adeundā virō.’

     He draws water, and lifting up his hands, says: “Forgive [me], sacred things! A man, I shall enter [a place which] ought not be approached by a man.”
     (The Temple of Vesta afire, Lucius Caecilius Metellus (consul 251 BC) begs forgiveness from Vesta (mythology) prior to saving items from the flames.)
