URGE
urgere (to press in a vehement urgent manner as a powerful warrior presses upon an enemy; IMPROP. of pressing in argument urgere aliquem or absolutely urgerent praeterea philosophorum greges ... instaret Academia Cic.; feci summa lenitate quae feci; ilium neque ursi neque etc. Cic. In the sense “to urge anybody to do anything ” it is very rare. Lepidus ursit me et suis et Antonii litteris ut legionem tricesimam mitterem sibi Asin. Poll. ap. Cic. Fam. 10 32 4): instare (to be ever as it were close upon anybody to press him etc.; alicui often absolutely; also instare de aliquo or de aliqua re. Followed by infinitive instat poscere recuperatores Cic.; by ut ne [not in Cic.] ut Quint. ne Plaut.). (The words are found in this connection and order.) urgere instare (Cic.): summe contendere ab aliquo (Cic. to demand anything of anybody vehemently; ut ne): acerrime suadere alicui (ut or ne; to advise in the strongest terms; cum acerrime Lepido suasisset ne se cum Antonio jungeret Velleius 2 63 2). To urge the plea of bad health excusare valetudinem (Liv.); of poverty excusare inopiam (Caes.): ☞ causari aliquid (Augustan poets and post-Augustan prose). To urge anything (= advise) suadere aliquid: hortari aliquid (e.g. to urge the necessity of peace pacem suadere hortari; both Cic.). Vid: To PRESS = to urge and to try earnestly to persuade.
