Lewis & Short

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

vestĭceps, cĭpis [vestis-capio, that has got the first covering of the chin, opp. investis], bearded, arrived at puberty, manly, virile (post-class.).

  1. I. Lit.: arrogari non potest nisi jam vesticeps, Gell. 5, 19, 7; Tert. Anim. 56; Aus. Idyll. 4, 73.
  2. * II. Transf., immoral, corrupt (opp. investis, innocent), App. Mag. p. 336, 7.
