• αʹ Cicero, Ad Atticum 14.13:

qua re quoniam hoc a me sic petis ut, quae tua potestas est, ea neges te me invito usurum, puero quoque hoc a me dabis

For since you are asking this of me, denying yourself to do what is in your power with me being unwilling, you will grant it to the boy as well on my part.
