   • c. 37 BCE – 30 BCE, Virgil, Georgics 2.519:

     Venit hiems: teritur Sicyonia baca trapetis,
     glande sues laeti redeunt, dant arbuta silvae;
     et varios ponit fetus autumnus et alte
     mitis in apricis coquitur vindemia saxis.

     • Translation by James B. Greenough

       Winter is come: in olive-mills they bruise
       The Sicyonian berry; acorn-cheered
       The swine troop homeward; woods their arbutes yield;
       So, various fruit sheds Autumn, and high up
       On sunny rocks the mellowing vintage bakes.

   • c. 84 BCE – 54 BCE, Catullus, Carmina 5.5–7:

     Vīvāmus, mea Lesbia, atque amēmus,
     Rūmōrēsque senum sevēriōrum
     Omnēs ūnius aestimēmus assis!
     Sōlēs occidere et redīre possunt:
     Nōbīs, cum semel occidit brevis lūx,
     Nox est perpetua ūna dormienda.

     Let us live, my Lesbia, and love too, let us frown upon the tails of the old and of these too stern! Days may come and go: as light briefly fades, ours is an everlasting night for us two to sleep away.

2. (usually with ad) to be brought or reduced to; arrive at, reach, attain
3. (of revenue) to come in, arise, proceed

   Synonyms: ēvādō, accēdō, prōcēdō

Irregular conjugation, but similar to fourth conjugation. The third principal part is most often contracted to rediī, but occasionally appears as redīvī. Redeunt sometimes appears as the lengthened form redīnunt.
