ovation: i. e. an inferior triumph: ŏvātio: Gell. 5, 6, fin.: Flor. To celebrate an o., ovare, Gell. l. c.: Plin. (N.B.--The verb is found in Cic., Liv., etc.; the subs. only in late authors: hence usu. best expr. by verb: an o. was decreed to Manlius, Manlio ut ovans urbem ingrederetur, decretum est, Liv. 5, 31, med.: this was afterwards the crown used in o.s, haec postea ovantium fuit corona, Plin. 15, 29, 38.) Phr.: to receive a perfect o., effusissime excipi, Suet. Ner. 22 (BY NO MEANS ovatio in this lax use).
