Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

  1. I. A stroking, flattering, flattery: aufer hinc palpationes, Plaut. Men. 4, 2, 43.
  2. II. Trembling, terror (eccl. Lat.): tenebrae et palpatio, Vulg. Isa. 32, 14.
