O crime worthy of punishment

ănĭmadverto (archaic - vorto), ti, sum, 3, v. a. [contr. from animum adverto, which orthography is very freq. in the anteclass. period; cf. adverto, II. B.] (scarcely found in any poet beside Ter. and Verg.), to direct the mind or attention to a thing, to attend to, give heed to, to take heed, consider, regard, observe.

Lit.

In gen.:

alios tuam rem credidisti magis quam tete animum advorsuros,

Cic. Div. 2, 27:

sed animadvertendum est diligenter, quae natura rerum sit,

id. Off. 2, 20, 69:

dignitas tua facit, ut animadvertatur quicquid facias,

id. Fam. 11, 27, 7; Nep. Epam. 6, 2.—With ut, to think of:

illud me non animadvertisse moleste ferrem, ut ascriberem, etc.,

Cic. Fam. 5, 20, 5 (cf.:

animos advertere, ne,

Liv. 4, 45).—

Esp., as t. t.

Of the lictor, whose duty it was to give attention, to see, that the consul, when he appeared, should receive due homage (cf. Sen. Ep. 64; Schwarz ad Plin. Pan. 23, and Smith, Dict. Antiq., s. v. lictor):

consul animadvertere proximum lictorem jussit,

Liv. 24, 44 fin. —

Of the people, to whom the lictor gave orders to pay attention, to pay regard to:

consule theatrum introeunte, cum lictor animadverti ex more jussisset,

Suet. Caes. 80 Ruhnk.—

Transf., as a consequence of attention.

id. Cat. 1, 12, 30:

qui in alios animadvertisset indictā causā,
