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.
