which belongs to our time

partem pedis esse aequalom alteri parti,

paupertatem divitiis etiam inter homines aequalem esse,

aequalem se faciens Deo,

aequales angelis sunt,

nec enim aut linguā aut moribus aequales abhorrere (Bastarnas a Scordiscis),

ut sententiae sint membris aequalibus,

aequalis ponderis erunt omnes,

Creticus et ejus aequalis Paeon,

adulescens ita dilexi senem, ut aequalem,

P. Orbius, meus fere aequalis,

Aristides aequalis fere ruit Themistocli,

Livius (Andronicus) Ennio aequalis fuit,

Philistus aequalis illorum temporum,

O amice salve mi atque aequalis, ut vales?

ne cuiquam suorum aequalium supplex siet,

Deiotari benevolentia in populum Romanum est ipsius aequalis aetati,

in memoriam notam et aequalem incurro,

aequali tecum pubesceret aevo,

fuit cum ea cupressus aequalis,

florentes aequali corpore Nymphae,

chorus aequalis Dryadum,

3, 14, 55: nil aequale homini fuit illi,

imber lentior aequaliorque,

aequali ictu freta scindere, Ov M. 11, 463: Euphranor in quocumque genere excellens ac sibi aequalis,

opus aequali quadam mediocritate,

loca,

terra,

gentes esse sine naribus aequali totius oris planitie,

mons aequali dorso continuus,

aequalissima porticus,
