  • s. finis (boundary as a mathematical line; also “end” proposed to be reached): extremum (the last portion; both of both lime and space): terminus (PROP. the stone set up to mark a boundary; hence boundary, of space only): exitus (issue of an action or affair; also end of a word, vocis, verbi): modus (the limit beyond which an action is not to be carried on; e.g., nullus modus caedibus fuit): clausula (conclusion of a sentence, of a letter, etc.): caput (anything resembling a head; e.g., of a rope, funis). The end of life, vitae exitus: vitae finis (but finis alone is unclassical, Ruhnken, Vell., 2, 123, 3). ☞ “End” is often to be translated by extremus: at the end of his speech, in extrema oratione: at the end of the book, in extremo libro (☞ not in calce libri, which has no ancient authority): at the end of the year, extremo anno, extremo anni, or anno exeunte: at the end of January, extremo mense Januario. I do not know what the end is to be, vereor, quorsum id casurum sit; timeo, quorsum hoc evadat. I cannot foresee what the end of it all will be, alicujus rei exitum evolvere non possum: there is not an end of it yet, res nondum finem invenit. I see there will be no end of this, unless I put a stop to it myself, video non futurum finem in ista materia ullum, nisi quem mihi fecero.

(Cic., Tusc., 1, 14, 31): to what end is this? quorsum hoc spectat? to propose to one’s self a great end, magna spectare: not to attain one’s end, a proposito aberrare; propositum non consequi.
