To drive or carry off (animals or men), to steal, rob, plunder (usually abigere):

Et redigunt actos in sua rura boves,

Ov. F. 3, 64.—So esp. freq. of men or animals taken as booty in war, while ferre is used of portable things; hence, ferre et agere (as in Gr. agein kai pherein, Hom. Il. 5, 484; and reversed, pherein kai agein, in Hdt. and Xen.; cf.:

rapiunt feruntque,

Verg. A. 2, 374:

so often in the histt., esp. Caes. and Livy, as t. t., of moving forwards the battering engines: celeriter vineis ad oppidum actis,

pushed forwards, up, Caes. B. G. 2, 12 Herz.; so id. ib. 3, 21; 7, 17; id. B. C. 2, 1; Liv. 8, 16:

Cat. 63, 31:

eodem tempore et gestum et animam ageres,

Cic. Rosc. Com. 8:

Est tanti habere animam ut agam?

Sen. Ep. 101, 12; and with a play upon words: semper agis causas et res agis, Attale, semper. Est, non est, quod agas, Attale, semper agis. Si res et causae desunt, agis, Attale, mulas;

Attale, ne quod agas desit, agas animam,

Mart. 1, 80.—

Ov. M. 2, 582.

Trop.

Spec., to guide, govern:

Tros Tyriusque mihi nullo discrimine agetur,

Verg. A. 1, 574; cf. Forbig. ad h. 1., who considers it the only instance of this use, and compares a similar use of agô; v. L. and S. s. v. II. 2.—

In gen., to move, impel, excite, urge to a thing, to prompt or induce to:

si quis ad illa deus te agat,

Hor. S. 2, 7, 24:

quam deus ultor agebat,

Ov. M. 14, 750:

futurae mortis agor stimulis,

Luc. 4, 517; cf. Matth. ad Cic. Mur. § 21.—

To drive at something, to pursue a course of action, i. e. to make something an object of action; either in the most general sense, like the Engl. do and the Gr. prattein, for every kind of mental or physical employment; or, in a more restricted sense, to exhibit in external action, to act or perform, to deliver or pronounce, etc., so that after the act is completed nothing remains permanent, e. g. a speech, dance, play, etc. (while facere, to make, poiein, denotes the production of an object which continues to exist after the act is completed; and gerere, the performance of the duties of an office or calling).—On these significations, v. Varr. 6, 6, 62, and 6, 7, 64, and 6, 8, 72.—For the more restricted signif. v. Quint. 2, 18, 1 sq.; cf. Manut. ad Cic. Fam. 7, 12; Hab. Syn. 426.

In the most gen. signif., to do, act, labor, in opp. to rest or idleness.

numquam se plus agere quam nihil cum ageret,

Cic. Rep. 1, 17 (cf. with this, id. Off. 3, 1: numquam se minus otiosum esse quam cum otiosus esset): mihi, qui nihil agit, esse omnino non videtur. id. N. D. 2, 16, 46:

post satietatem nihil (est) agendum,

Cels. 1, 2.—Hence,

was so acting, Cic. Lig. 7, 21: a Burro minaciter actum, Burrus [p. 75] proceeded to threats, Tac. A. 13, 21.—

To pursue, do, perform, transact (the most usual signif. of this word; in all periods; syn.: facere, efficere, transigere, gerere, tractare, curare): cui quod agat institutumst nullo negotio id agit, Enn. ap.

age igitur, intro abite,

Plaut. Mil. 3, 3, 54:

En agedum convertite,

Prop. 1, 1, 21:

mittite, agedum, legatos,

Liv. 38, 47:

Ite age,

Stat. Th. 10, 33:

Huc age adeste,

Sil. 11, 169.—

In transitions in discourse, well then! well now! well! (esp. in Cic. Or. very freq.). So in Plaut. for resuming discourse that has been interrupted: age, tu interea huic somnium narra, Curc. 2, 2, 5: nunc age, res quoniam docui non posse creari, etc., well now, since I have taught, etc., Lucr. 1, 266:

nunc age, quod superest, cognosce et clarius audi,

id. 1, 920; so id. 1, 952; 2, 62; 333; 730; 3, 418;

4, 109 al.: age porro, tu, qui existimari te voluisti interpretem foederum, cur, etc.,

Cic. Verr. 2, 5, 22; so id. Rosc. Am. 16; id. Part. 12; id. Att. 8, 3.—And age (as in a.) with a verb in the plur.:

age vero, ceteris in rebus qualis sit temperantia considerate,

Cic. Imp. Pomp. 14; so id. Sull. 26; id. Mil. 21; id. Rosc. Am. 37.—

As a sign of assent, well! very well! good! right! Age, age, mansero, Plaut. As. 2, 2, 61: age, age, jam ducat;

dabo,

Ter. Phorm. 4, 3, 57:

Age, veniam,

id. And. 4, 2, 30:

age, sit ita factum,

Cic. Mil. 19:

age sane,

Plaut. Ps. 5, 2, 27; Cic. Fin. 2, 35, 119.

—Age, used with another verb in the imperative, regularly stands before it, but in poetry, for the sake of the metre, it,

Sometimes follows such verb; as,

In dactylic metre:

Cede agedum,

Prop. 5, 9, 54:

Dic age,

Verg. A. 6, 343; Hor. S. 2, 7, 92; Ov. F. 1, 149:

Esto age,

Pers. 2, 42:

Fare age,

Verg. A. 3, 362:

Finge age,

Ov. H. 7, 65:

Redde age,

Hor. S. 2, 8, 80:

Surge age,

Verg. A. 3, 169; 8, 59; 10, 241; Ov. H. 14, 73:

Vade age,

Verg. A. 3, 462; 4, 422; so,

agite: Ite agite,

Prop. 4, 3, 7.—

In other metres (very rarely):

appropera age,

Plaut. Cas. 2, 2, 38:

dic age,

Hor. C. 1, [p. 77] 32, 3; 2, 11, 22;

3, 4, 1.—So also in prose (very rarely): Mittite agedum,

Liv. 38, 47:

procedat agedum ad pugnam,

id. 7, 9.—

It is often separated from such verb:

age me huc adspice,

Plaut. Am. 2, 2, 118; id. Capt. 5, 2, 1:

Age... instiga,

Ter. And. 4, 2, 10; 5, 6, 11:

Quare agite... conjungite,

Cat. 64, 372:

Huc age... veni,

Tib. 2, 5, 2:

Ergo age cervici imponere nostrae,

Verg. A. 2, 707:

en age segnis Rumpe moras,

id. G. 3, 42:

age te procellae Crede,

Hor. C. 3, 27, 62:

Age jam... condisce,

id. ib. 4, 11, 31; id. S. 2, 7, 4.—Hence,

ăgens, entis, P. a.

Adj.

Efficient, effective, powerful (only in the rhet. lang. of Cic.):

utendum est imaginibus agentibus, acribus, insignitis,

Cic. de Or. 2, 87, 358:

id. Brut. 92, 317.— Comp. and sup. not used.

Subst.: ăgentes, ium.

For agrimensores, land-surveyors, Hyg. Lim. p. 179.—

actus, a, um, P. a. Lit., that has been transacted in the Senate, in the forum, before the courts of justice, etc.; hence,

actum ejus, qui in re publica cum imperio versatus sit,

Cic. Phil. 1, 7:

acta Caesaris servanda censeo,

id. ib. 1, 7:

acta tui praeclari tribunatus,

id. Dom. 31.—

acta publĭca, or absol.: acta, orum, n., the register of public acts, records, journal. Julius Caesar, in his consulship, ordered that the doings of the Senate (diurna acta) should be made public, Suet. Caes. 20; cf. Ernest. Exc. 1;

but Augustus again prohibited it,

Suet. Aug. 36. Still the acts of the Senate were written down, and, under the succeeding emperors. certain senators were appointed to this office (actis vel commentariis Senatus conficiendis), Tac. A. 5, 4. They had also public registers of the transactions of the assemblies of the people, and of the different courts of justice;

also of births and deaths, marriages, divorces, etc., which were preserved as sources of future history.—Hence, diurna urbis acta,

the city journal, Tac. A. 13, 31:

acta populi,

Suet. Caes. 20:

acta publica,

Tac. A. 12, 24; Suet. Tib. 8; Plin. Ep. 7, 33:

acta militarĭa, the daily records of the movements of a legion, Veg. R. R. 2, 19.
