The Letters of Cicero, Volume 1

Note 423 — XCII (Q FR II, 1)

Evelyn S. (Evelyn Shirley) Shuckburgh translation

Nihil vos moramur were the words used by the presiding magistrate, indicating that he had no more business to bring before the senate. If no one said anything, the senate was dismissed; but any magistrate, or magistrate-designate, could speak, and so continue the sitting up to nightfall, when the house stood adjourned.
