On the extreme subdivision of office among slaves at Rome, see Beck. Gall. Exc. 2. Sc. 2; and Smith's Dic. Antiq. under Servus. Descripta==dimensa, distributa. Guen. Familiam. Here the entire body of servants, cf. note, Sec. 15. Quisque. Each servant has his own house and home. Ut colono. Like the tenant or farmer among the Romans; also the vassal in the middle ages, and the serf in Modern Europe.

In a cause in which he was employed as associate counsel with General Hamilton, an incident occurred, in relation to Chief Justice Yates, not unworthy recording. It speaks a language that cannot he misunderstood, and is demonstrative of the influence which he had over the feelings as well as the minds of his hearers. It was the celebrated case of Le Guen vs.

They are always answered, however. We have agreed that the cause of Le Guen shall come on next Tuesday. It will last the whole week. The week following I shall hope to leave this place; but I may be deceived, for the court may take a week to consider of the business, and I cannot leave the ground till the thing be determined. Adieu, chere amie, Albany, February 13, 1800.

Ad verba, cf. note, His. 1, 16: ne fueris. The emphatic word always stands between ne and quidem. Superest. Is over and above, i.e. abounds. So superest ager, Sec. 26. Vel. Pro sive, Ciceroni inauditum. Guen. Cf. note, 17. Frameas. The word is still found in Spain, as well as Germany. Lancea. is also a Spanish word, cf. Freund. Nudi. Cf. Sec. 17, 20, and 24.

See the principle well stated and illustrated in Doederlein's Essay on the style of Tacitus, p. 15, in my edition of the Histories. Admiratione praesunt. Gain influence, or ascendency, by means of the admiration which they inspire, cf. note on metus, Sec. 2. Agant. Subj., ut ad judicium admirantium, non mentem scriptoris trahatur. Guen. Animadvertere==interficere. Cf.

Since they were not covetous, Guen. Gr renders: though they were not equally desirous of it. Notum auditur. The Elbe had been seen and crossed by Drusus Domitius, and Tiberius. But now it was known only by hearsay. See a like patriotic complaint at the close of 37. XLII. Marcomanni==men of the marches. See Latham in loc Sedes, sc. Bohemia. Pulsis olim Boiis, cf. 28.

You may tell C. that as she and I are on ceremony, I shall expect the first letter. She knows well that the bare sight of her handwriting would drive Le Guen and the parchments to the antipodes. I do thank you for your constancy about the French ball. Do not be alarmed lest I expect too much.

Consilii quam formidinis. Supply magis. The conciseness of T. leads him often to omit one of two correlative particles, cf. note on minime, 4. Referunt. Carry into the rear, and so secure them for burial. Etiam in dubiis proeliis. Even while the battle remains undecided. Guen. Finierunt. In a present or aorist sense, as often in T. So prohibuerunt, Sec. 10; placuit and displicuit, 11. cf. Lex.

Hercules is the god of strength, perhaps Thor. Certis diebus. Statis diebus. Guen. Humanis hostiis. Even facere in the sense of sacrifice is construed with abl. Virg. Ec. 3, 77. Quoque==even. For its position in the sentence, cf. note, 3. Concessis animalibus. Such as the Romans and other civilized nations offer, in contradistinction to human sacrifices, which the author regards as in-concessa.

Illum illam. Angl. this that, cf. hinc hinc, A. 25. Bellatorem equum. Cf. Virg. Incompti apparatus. Entertainments, though inelegant yet liberal. Apparatus is used in the same way, Suet. Vitel. 10 and 13. Cedunt== iis dantur. Guen. Nec arare, etc.
