    Aqua et ignis, to express the most common necessaries of life:

    non aquā, non igni, ut aiunt, locis pluribus utimur quam amicitiā,

Phil. 1, 9; so the bride, on the day of marriage, received from the bridegroom aqua et ignis, as a symbol of their union: aquā et igni tam interdici solet damnatis quam accipiunt nuptae, videlicet quia hae duae res humanam vitam maxime continent, Paul. ex Fest. p. 3 Müll. (this custom is differently explained in [p. 148] Varr. L. L. 5, 9, 18): aquam et terram petere, of an enemy (like gên kai hudôr aitein), to demand submission, Liv. 35, 17:

    Ex uno puteo similior numquam potis Aqua aquaï

    sumi quam haec est atque ista hospita,

    you can't find two peas more like, Plaut. Mil. 1, 6, 70 sq. —
    b.
    In aquā scribere = kath hudatos graphein, to write in water, of something transient, useless:

    cupido quod dicit amanti, In vento et rapidā scribere oportet aquā,

    Cat. 70, 4 (cf. Keats' epitaph on himself: here lies one whose name was writ in water; and the Germ., etwas hinter die Feueresse schreiben).—

    Water, in a more restricted sense.
    A.
    The sea:

    coge, ut ad aquam tibi frumentum Ennenses metiantur,

    on the sea-coast, Cic. Verr. 2, 3, 83:

    Aqua et ignis, to express the most common necessaries of life:

    non aquā, non igni, ut aiunt, locis pluribus utimur quam amicitiā,

Phil. 1, 9; so the bride, on the day of marriage, received from the bridegroom aqua et ignis, as a symbol of their union: aquā et igni tam interdici solet damnatis quam accipiunt nuptae, videlicet quia hae duae res humanam vitam maxime continent, Paul. ex Fest. p. 3 Müll. (this custom is differently explained in [p. 148] Varr. L. L. 5, 9, 18): aquam et terram petere, of an enemy (like gên kai hudôr aitein), to demand submission, Liv. 35, 17:

    Ex uno puteo similior numquam potis Aqua aquaï

    sumi quam haec est atque ista hospita,

    you can't find two peas more like, Plaut. Mil. 1, 6, 70 sq. —
    b.
    In aquā scribere = kath hudatos graphein, to write in water, of something transient, useless:

    cupido quod dicit amanti, In vento et rapidā scribere oportet aquā,

    Cat. 70, 4 (cf. Keats' epitaph on himself: here lies one whose name was writ in water; and the Germ., etwas hinter die Feueresse schreiben).—

    A.

    coge, ut ad aquam tibi frumentum Ennenses metiantur,

    id. ib. 6, 198:

    aquae magnae bis eo anno fuerunt,

    heavy rains, a flood, inundation, Liv. 24, 9; 38, 28.—
