    spondĕo, spŏpondi, sponsum, 2 ( perf. spepondi, Cic., Caes., and Val. Antias ap. Gell. 7, 9, 12 sq.; Inscr. Orell. 4358;

    without redup. sponderat,

    Tert. Carm. adv. Mart. 3, 135; subj. sponsis = spoponderis, an ancient formula of prayer in Fest. p. 351 Müll.), v. a. [akin with spendô, to pour out, = libare; cf. spondai, league].
    I.
    Jurid. and publicists' t. t.
    A.
    In bargains, covenants, treaties, etc., to promise solemnly, to bind, engage, or pledge one's self (class.; syn.: recipio, stipulor, promitto; cf.: vadimonium obire, vadari); according to the civil law in its original form, it was essential to a binding contract verbally made (verbis) that a proposition and its acceptance should be expressed by the question spondes? and the answer spondeo; and only at a later period was the use of promitto, etc., valid (v. Sandars, Introd. ad Just. Inst. p. LV): verbis obligatio fit ex interrogatione et responsione, velut, Dari spondes? Spondeo. Dabis? Dabo. Promittis? Promitto;

    sed haec quidem verborum obligatio: dari spondes? spondeo, propria civium Romanorum est, cetera vero juris gentium sunt,

    Gai. Inst. 3, 91 sq.; Dig. 45, 1, 126; 45, 1, 133; cf.

    the whole title,

    ib. 45, 1: De verborum obligationibus: He. Aeternum tibi dapinabo victum, si vera autumas... Er. Sponden' tu istut? He. Spondeo, Plaut. Capt. 4, 2, 118: qui stulte spondet, Cato ap. Rufin. 18, p. 210:

    Cic. Rosc. Com. 5, 13:

    ut aliquando spondere se diceret,

    id. Verr. 2, 5, 54, § 142:

    si quis quod spopondit, quā in re verbo se obligavit uno, si id non facit, etc.,

    id. Caecin. 3, 7:

    faeneris, quod stipulanti spoponderam tibi, reliquam pensiunculam percipe,

    Col. 10 praef.:

    ego meā fide spondeo futurum ut omnia invenias, etc.,

    Plin. Ep. 1, 14, 10.—
    B.
    To promise for another, to become security for a person, to enter bail, etc.:

    quod multis benigne fecerit, pro multis spoponderit,

    has become security, Cic. Planc. 19, 47:

    sed tamen scire velim quando dicar spopondisse et pro patre anne pro filio,

    id. Att. 12, 14, 2:

    quod pro Cornificio me abhinc annis XXV. spopondisse dicit Flavius,

    id. ib. 12, 17:

    et se quisque paratum ad spondendum Icilio ostendere,

    Liv. 3, 46, 7:

    sponsum diceres advocasse, Cic. Fragm. Clod. et Cur. 3, 4, p. 29 B. and K.: hic sponsum vocat,

    Hor. Ep. 2, 2, 67:

    sponsum descendam, quia promisi,

    Sen. Ben. 4, 39, 2. —
    2.
    Transf., of promises or pledges made in behalf of a government, etc.:

    non foedere pax Caudina, sed per sponsionem facta est... Spoponderunt consules, legati, quaestores, tribuni militum,

    Liv. 9, 5, 4:

    quod spondendo pacem servassent exercitum,

    id. 9, 8, 15:

    quid tandem si spopondissemus urbem hanc relicturum populum Romanum?

    id. 9, 9, 6:

    ea demum sponsio esset, quam populi jussu spopondissemus,

    id. 9, 9, 13:

    hosti nihil spopondistis, civem neminem spondere pro vobis jussistis,

    id. 9, 9, 16.—
    C.
    Esp., to promise or engage in marriage, betroth: qui uxorem ducturus erat ab eo unde ducenda erat, stipulabatur eam in matrimonium ductam iri; [p. 1746] qui daturus erat itidem spondebat. Tum quae promissa erat sponsa appellabatur, qui spoponderat ducturum, sponsus, Sulp. Dot. ap. Gell. 4, 4, 2: Ly. Istac lege filiam tuam sponden' mihi uxorem dari? Ch. Spondeo. Ca. Et ego spondeo idem hoc, Plaut. Trin. 5, 2, 38 sq.; 2, 4, 172: Me. Etiam mihi despondes filiam? Eu. Illis legibus, Cum illā dote quam tibi dixi. Me. Sponden' ergo? Eu. Spondeo, id. Aul. 2, 2, 78: Ph.

Trin. 5, 2, 34.—Hence, of women, alicui sponsam esse, to be betrothed, engaged to a man:

    si volt Demipho Dare quantum ab hac accipio, quae sponsa est mihi,

    Ter. Phorm. 4, 3, 52:

    scis, sponsam mihi (esse)?

    id. Eun. 5, 9 (8), 6; Plaut. Trin. 2, 4, 101 sq.; 2, 4, 172; 2, 4, 174; id. Poen. 5, 3, 43.—
    D.
    = sponsionem facere (v. sponsio, II.), to lay a judicial wager, to enter into an agreement to pay contingent on the truth or falsity of an assertion: si hoc ita est, qui spondet mille nummūm? P. Afric. ap. Gell. 6 (7), 11, 9.— So, absol.:
