    cum postulasset... ut sibi triumphanti urbem invehi liceret,

    Liv. 38, 44 fin.

    Very rarely, in this construction, the dative with licet is wanting, and is to be supplied from the connection: atqui licet esse beatis (sc. iis),

    licet eminus esse Fortibus,

    Ov. M. 8, 405:

    quod profecto faciam, si mihi per ejusdem amicitiam licebit,

    Cic. Fam. 1, 8, 3: Ph. Sed quaeso, hominem ut jubeas arcessi. He. Licet, that may be or may be done, I have no objection, Plaut. Capt. 5, 1, 29:

    id. Phorm. 3, 3, 16:

    sic ut quimus, aiunt, quando, ut volumus, non licet,

    ut id, quoad posset, quod fas esset, quoad liceret, populi ad partes daret,

    Cic. Agr. 2, 7, 19.
    II.
    Transf. When licet introduces a subordinate proposition, which makes a concession, without abandoning the main proposition, it is used as a conjunction corresponding to quamvis, quamquam, etsi. In late Latin it is, like these, connected with the indicative, and in the class. per. it is not unfreq. opposed to tamen and certe in the main proposition; even if, although, notwithstanding.
    A.
    With subj. (class.):

    cum postulasset... ut sibi triumphanti urbem invehi liceret,

    Liv. 38, 44 fin.

    Very rarely, in this construction, the dative with licet is wanting, and is to be supplied from the connection: atqui licet esse beatis (sc. iis),

    Hor. S. 1, 1, 19:

    licet eminus esse Fortibus,

    Ov. M. 8, 405:

    Hannibal precatur deos ut incolumi cedere atque abire liceat,

    Ter. Heaut. 4, 15, 49:

    cum licitum est ei,

    id. And. 2, 6, 12:

    id. Heaut. 3, 2, 50:

    quod profecto faciam, si mihi per ejusdem amicitiam licebit,

    Cic. Fam. 1, 8, 3: Ph. Sed quaeso, hominem ut jubeas arcessi. He. Licet, that may be or may be done, I have no objection, Plaut. Capt. 5, 1, 29:

    ut id, quoad posset, quod fas esset, quoad liceret, populi ad partes daret,

    Cic. Agr. 2, 7, 19.
    II.
    Transf. When licet introduces a subordinate proposition, which makes a concession, without abandoning the main proposition, it is used as a conjunction corresponding to quamvis, quamquam, etsi. In late Latin it is, like these, connected with the indicative, and in the class. per. it is not unfreq. opposed to tamen and certe in the main proposition; even if, although, notwithstanding.

    cum postulasset... ut sibi triumphanti urbem invehi liceret,

    Liv. 38, 44 fin.

    Very rarely, in this construction, the dative with licet is wanting, and is to be supplied from the connection: atqui licet esse beatis (sc. iis),

    Hor. S. 1, 1, 19:

    licet eminus esse Fortibus,

    Ov. M. 8, 405:

    II.
    Transf. When licet introduces a subordinate proposition, which makes a concession, without abandoning the main proposition, it is used as a conjunction corresponding to quamvis, quamquam, etsi. In late Latin it is, like these, connected with the indicative, and in the class. per. it is not unfreq. opposed to tamen and certe in the main proposition; even if, although, notwithstanding.
