    Plin. Ep. 9, 38; cf. of the days of the month: luna alternis mensibus XXX. implebit numeros, alternis vero detrahet singulos, Plin. 18, 32, 75, § 325.—Hence, omnium numerorum esse, to be complete, perfect, Petr. 68:

    histrio si paulum se movet extra numerum,

    in solutā oratione... modum tamen et numerum quendam oportere servari,

    id. Brut. 8, 32:

    id. Or. 65, 220:

    redigere omnes fere in quadrum numerumque sententias,

    id. ib. 61, 208.—Hence, quamvis nil extra numerum fecisse modumque Curas, nothing out of measure, improper, Hor. Ep. 1, 18, 59.—
    2.
    A measure, number, in poetry:

    nam cum sint numeri plures, iambum et trochaeum frequentem segregat ab oratore Aristoteles,

    numerisque fertur Lege solutis,

    Hor. C. 4, 2, 11.—
    3.
    A verse, in gen. ( poet.):

    arma gravi numero violentaque bella parabam Edere,

    i. e. verses in heroic metre, Ov. Am. 1, 1, 1:

    impares,

    i. e. elegiac verses, id. ib. 3, 1, 37.—Hence, nŭmĕrō (abl.), adverb., lit., measured according to number or time, i. e. precisely, exactly, just (only ante-class.; freq. in Plautus; not found in Ter. or Lucr.).
    A.
    Just, precisely, at the right time, on the instant: numero mihi in mentem fuit. Plaut. Am. 1, 1, 25: neminem vidi, qui numero sciret, quod scitu est opus, Naev. ap. Fest. p. 170 Müll.—
    B.
    Quickly, rapidly, soon:

    numero significat cito,

    Non. 352, 16 sq.:

    (apes) si quando displicatae sunt, cymbalis et plausibus numero reducunt in locum unum,

    Varr. R. R. 3, 16, 7. —With nimis: perfalsum et abs te creditum numero nimis, too quickly, too soon, Afran. ap. Paul. ex Fest. p. 170 Müll.: numquam nimis numero quemquam vidi facere, quam facto est opus, Turp. ap. Non. 352, 20.—
    2.
    In a bad sense, too quickly, too hastily, too soon:

    Menaechme, numero huc advenis ad prandium: Nunc opsonatu redeo,

    Plaut. Men. 2, 2, 13:

    numero dicis,

    id. Cas. 3, 5, 28; id. Mil. 5, 1, 6:

    o Apella, o Zeuxis pictor, Cur numero estis mortui, hinc exemplum ut pingeretis?

    why have you died too soon? id. Poen. 5, 4, 102; Afran. ap. Non. 352, 26; id. ap. Paul. ex Fest. l. l.
