  • 16 saltem

    saltem (sometimes in MSS. saltim; cf. Aus. Ep. 7, 23; and Prisc. p. 1013 P.), adv. [old acc. form, from salvus, salus]. prop., saved, reserved (salvā re; compare Engl. save, except). It serves to point out that which still remains or holds good, in spite of or by way of exception to something opposed to it; and accordingly is used (like certe, II.) as a restrictive particle, at least, at the least, at all events, anyhow.
    I.
    Affirmatively (class.).
    A.
    With a statement of the opposite:

    si illud non licet, Saltem hoc licebit,

    Ter. Eun. 4, 2, 12; Plaut. Capt. 3, 1, 26:

    semper tu hoc facito cogites, tute uti sis optimus: Si id nequeas, saltem ut optimis sis proximus,

    id. Trin. 2, 4, 86; cf. Quint. 10, 1, 127:

    saltem accurate, ut metui videar, si resciverim,

    Ter. And. 3, 2, 14:

    impetrabo, ut aliquot saltem nuptiis prodat dies,

    id. ib. 2, 1, 13:

    si alia membra vino madeant, cor sit saltem sobrium,

    Plaut. Truc. 4, 4, 2:

    etsi istuc mihi acerbum'st... saltem id volupe est, cum, etc.,

    id. Mil. 4, 5, 12:

    quo provocati a me venire noluerunt, revocati saltem revertantur,

    Cic. Agr. 3, 1, 1:

    attrepidate saltem, nam vos approperare haud postulo,

    Plaut. Poen. 3, 1, 41; cf.:

    vere nihil potes dicere: finge aliquid saltem commode,

    Cic. Rosc. Am. 19, 54; id. Fl. 13, 35:

    eripe mihi hunc dolorem aut minue saltem,

    id. Att. 9, 6, 5: neque iis (militibus) posse persuaderi, ut eum defendant aut sequantur saltem, * Caes. B. C. 1, 6; Quint. 6, 5, 1; Plaut. Merc. 3, 4, 52: utinam quietis temporibus atque aliquo, si non bono, at saltem certo statu civitatis haec inter nos studia exercere possemus! Cic. Fam. 9, 8, 2; id. Pis. 11, 24.—In a question:

    quis ego sum saltem, si non sum Sosia?

    tell me, at least, who I am; then who am I, pray? Plaut. Am. 1, 2, 282.—
    B.
    Without mention of the opposite:

    istuc sapienter saltem fecit filius,

    Plaut. Bacch. 2, 3, 103:

    saltem aliquem velim, qui mihi ex his locis viam monstret,

    id. Rud. 1, 3, 29:

    saltem Pseudolum mihi dedas,

    id. Ps. 4, 7, 127:

    saltem aliquid de pondere detraxisset,

    Cic. Fin. 4, 20, 57:

    nunc saltem ad illos calculos revertamur,

    id. Att. 8, 12, 5:

    saltem tenet hoc nos,

    Hor. S. 1, 6, 44:

    ut opperiare hos sex dies saltem modo,

    Plaut. Ps. 1, 3, 87; cf.:

    triduom hoc saltem,

    id. Truc. 4, 4, 21:

    saltem tantisper, dum, etc.,

    id. Rud. 4, 4, 146:

    antehac quidem sperare saltem licebat: nunc etiam id ereptum est,

    Cic. Fam. 12, 23, 3:

    at grammatici saltem omnes descendent,

    Quint. 1, 4, 7. This last mode of enunciation forms the transition to its use,
    II.
    With the negatives non, neque, to indicate that not even a single remaining thing specified holds good; and, consequently, = ne... quidem, not at least, not even, nor even (so perh. only since the Aug. per.):

    ibi tribuni militum non praemunito vallo, non deorum saltem, si non hominum, memores, nec auspicato, etc.... instruunt aciem,

    Liv. 5, 38; 2, 43, 8; 6, 2, 19; Quint. 10, 7, 20; Plin. Pan. 82, 1; App. M. 7, p. 194, 33 al.:

    neque enim mihi illud saltem placet, quod, etc.,

    Quint. 1, 1, 24; cf.:

    nec vero saltem iis sufficiat, etc.,

    id. 10, 2, 15:

    non fratrem, non patruum saltem porta tenus obvium,

    Tac. A. 3, 5 fin.:

    nec deformitate istā saltem flumina carebant atque amnes,

    Plin. Pan. 82, 3:

    ut ipsum iter neque impervium neque saltem durum putent,

    Quint. 12, 11, 11:

    nec mihi statuta saltem cibaria praestabantur,

    App. M. 7, p. 194, 33.—Cf. with vix:

    illud vix saltem praecipiendum videtur, ne, etc.,

    Quint. 6, 4, 15.—After ne... quidem:

    ut ne a sententiis quidem ac verbis saltem singulis possit separari,

    Quint. 6, 5, 1.
