A style used by the Romans for writing on waxen tablets (pointed, and usually made of iron):

effer cito stilum, ceram et tabellas et linum,

Plaut. Bacch. 4, 4, 64; cf. id. ib. 4, 4, 76; 4, 9, 73; Quint. 1, 1, 27:

cum otiosus stilum prehenderat, flaccebat oratio,

Cic. Brut. 24, 93:

orationes paene Attico stilo scriptae,

with an Attic pen, id. ib. 45, 167; so,

(comoediae quaedam) resipiant stilum Plautinum,

Gell. 3, 3, 13.—And with reference to the ecenomical use, in a double sense, Cic. de Or. 2, 23, 96.—Writing on wax was erased with the broad upper end of the style; hence the phrase stilum vertere, for to erase what one has written, Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 41, § 101:

saepe stilum vertas, iterum quae digna legi sint, Scripturus,

Hor. S. 1, 10, 73.—But cf.:

et mihi vertenti stilum in Gallias,

i. e. turning to write of, Amm. 29, 3, 1.—Comically:

stilis me totum usque ulmeis conscribito,

i. e. with elm switches, Plaut. Ps. 1, 5, 131 (cf. conscribo).—

Transf.

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

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.
