ad-mŏnĕo, ui, ĭtum, 2, v. a., to bring up to one's mind, to put one in mind of ( in a friendly manner), to remind, suggest, advise, warn, admonish (by influencing more directly the reason and judgment; while in adhortor the admonition is addressed immediately to the will, Doed.

Brut. 3, 11: “in monente benevolentia, in admonente memoria,” Ernest. no. 1663).
