• αʹ Petronius, Satyricon 109:

In haec verba foederibus compositis arma deponimus, et ne residua in animis etiam post iusiurandum ira remaneret, praeterita aboleri osculis placet.

After we made our agreements in those words we laid down our weapons and lest, even after swearing, any leftover anger might remain in our hearts, we decided the past should be blotted out with kisses.
