"Unum hoc dico: nostri isti nobiles, nisi vigilantes et boni et fortes et misericordes erunt, iis hominibus in quibus haec erunt, ornamenta sua concedant necesse est." Pro Roscio Amerino, sec. 48.
Papists also put it out of controversy; for Bellarmine acknowledgeth that the apostles could not externally adore Christ by prostrating themselves in the last supper, quando recumbere cum eo illis necesse erat; where we see he could guess nothing of the change of their gesture. Intelligendum est, saith Jansenius, dominum in novissima hac coena, discubuisse et sedisse ante et post comestum agnum.

XXI. Necesse est. It is their duty and the law of custom. Guen. Nec==non tamen. Homicidium. A post-Augustan word. Armentorum ac pecorum.
"Ut necesse est, lancem in Libra, ponderibus impositis, deprimi, sic animum perspicuis cedere."
