What it meant — Lewis & Short

ŭbĭ-vīs, adv.volo,

I where you will, be it where it may, wherever it may be, anywhere, everywhere: nemo sit, quin ubivis, quam ibi, ubi est, esse malit, Cic. Fam. 6, 1, 1: qui mihi videntur ubivis tutius quam in senatu fore, id. Att. 14, 22, 2: ubivis facilius passus sim, quam in hac re, me deludier, in any thing, Ter. And. 1, 2, 32: nec recitem cuiquam, nisi amicis, idque coactus, Non ubivis coramve quibuslibet, Hor. S. 1, 4, 74.—With gentium: quanto fuerat praestabilius, ubivis gentium agere aetatem, i. e. anywhere in the world, Ter. Hec. 3, 1, 4.
