名詞

ventus m (genitive ventī); second declension

1. a wind
   • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Virgil, Aeneid 4.704-705:

     [...] Omnis et ūna / dīlāpsus calor, atque in ventōs vīta recessit.

     And all at once her warmth faded away, and her life receded into the winds.
     (The death of Dido; the conclusion of Book 4. See the notes by Page, T.E., [1967], pg. 394: “‘Life,’ ‘breath,’ ‘spirit,’ anima, ἄνεμος are so closely connected in human speech that poets naturally speak of life passing ‘into the winds.’”)

   • Inscription, The Crown 2016–2023:

     Homō sapiēns nōn ūrīnat in ventum

     A wise man pisseth not against the wind

   • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 4.729–730:

     Mōta dea est operīque favet: nāvālibus exit
     puppis, habent ventōs iam mea vēla suōs.

     The goddess is moved and she favors the work: my ship is leaving the docks, already my sails have their winds.
     (Inspiration returns as, metaphorically, the poet and his readers sail onward. Idiomatically, Ovid ‘‘has found his second wind’’ while writing the fourth book of the Fasti.)
