    Cic. Cael. 23, 57:

    lustrum, i, n. [2. luo], a purificatory sacrifice, expiatory offering, lustration, made by the censors for the whole people once in five years, after completing the census, and in which a swine, a sheep, and a bull were offered (suovetaurilia): lustrum condere, to make the lustral sacrifice:

    lustrum condidit et taurum immolavit,

    Cic. de Or. 2, 66, 268:

    censu perfecto edixit, ut omnes cives Romani in campo primā luce adessent. Ibi exercitum omnem suovetaurilibus lustravit: idque conditum lustrum appellatum, quia is censendo finis factus est,

    Liv. 1, 44; 3, 24; cf. id. 35, 9; 38, 36; 42, 10. The census could also be taken without being followed by a lustrum, Liv. 3, 22, 1; 24, 43, 4: sub lustrum censeri, at the close of the census, when the lustrum should begin:

    sub lustrum censeri, germani negotiatoris est (because these were usually not in Rome, and were included in the census last of all),

    Cic. Att. 1, 18, 8.—Being a religious ceremonial, the lustrum was sometimes omitted, when circumstances seemed to forbid it:

    census actus eo anno: lustrum propter Capitolium captum, consulem occisum, condi religiosum fuit,

    Liv. 3, 22, 1. Hence in part, doubtless, must be explained the small number of lustra actually celebrated; thus, A. U. C. 296:

    census perficitur, idque lustrum ab origine urbis decimum conditum ferunt,

    Liv. 3, 24, 10.—
    II.
    Transf.
    A.
    A propitiatory offering:

    quinto die Delphis Apollini pro me exercitibusque et classibus lustra sacrificavi,

    Liv. 45, 41, 3.—
    B.

    1.
    In gen.:

    cujus octavum trepidavit aetas Claudere lustrum,

    Hor. C. 2, 4, 24; Ov. Tr. 4, 10, 78; Mart. 10, 38, 9.—
    2.
    As the period of taxation, in reference to the imposition of duties, Varr, L. L. 6, 2, 11:

    hoc ipso lustro,

    Cic. Att. 6, 2, 5:

    superioris lustri reliqua,

    id. Fam. 2, 13, 3.—
    C.
    In gen., a period of several years; of four years (of the Julian calendar), Ov. F. 3, 163; cf. Plin. 2, 47, 47, § 122: ingens lustrum, the grand lustrum, a hundred years, at the end of which the ludi saeculares were celebrated, Mart. 4, 1, 7.—
