Examples

“Habēmus enim huius modī senātus cōnsultum, vērum inclūsum in tabulīs tamquam in vāgīnā reconditum, quō ex senātūs cōnsultō cōnfestim tē interfectum esse, Catilīna, convenit.”

For we have this type of decree of the Senate, but it is shut away in the tablets just as if it were hidden in a sheath, and by this very decree it is fitting that you, Catiline, be put to death at once. (In other words, Cicero compares the written decree of the senate to a weapon in its sheath or scabbard: something unutilized for its purpose.)
