negat ullum esse cibum tam gravem, quin is die et nocte concoquatur,

in a single day and night, id. N. D. 2, 9, 24; cf.

in this signif.: die ac nocte,

Plin. 29, 6, 36, § 113:

nocte et die,

Liv. 25, 39;

and simply die,

Hor. S. 2, 1, 4; Quint. 10, 3, 8; cf.

also: currus rogat ille paternos, Inque diem alipedum jus et moderamen equorum,

Ov. M. 2, 48; and, connected with nox:
