frusto
āre, v. a.
I.
to break to pieces: cum Punicae praedae omnibus promontoriis insulisque frustarentur et fluitarent, etc., Flor. 2, 2, 32 (so acc. to the conjecture of Salmasius, Graevius, and others, instead of the common and certainly false reading, frustrarentur. N. Heinsius proposes eructarentur; v. eructo, II.).
