    multā terra madescit aquā,

    id. ib. 6, 198:

    aquae magnae bis eo anno fuerunt,

    heavy rains, a flood, inundation, Liv. 24, 9; 38, 28.—
    E.
    In the plur., medicinal springs, waters, baths.

    heavy rains, a flood, inundation, Liv. 24, 9; 38, 28.—

    deūm genitor effusis aethera siccat aquis,

    Ov. F. 3, 286:

    multā terra madescit aquā,

    id. ib. 6, 198:

    aquae magnae bis eo anno fuerunt,

    heavy rains, a flood, inundation, Liv. 24, 9; 38, 28.—
