ea tempestate,
Sall. C. 36, 4:
quam urbem is rex condidit,
Plin. 6, 17, 21, § 61.—

When is, ea, id would stand in the same case with the relative it is usually omitted; when the relative precedes, it is sometimes employed for emphasis:
male se res habet, cum, quod virtute effici debet, id temptatur pecuniā,
Cic. Off. 2, 6, 22. —
3.
Connected with que and quidem, it gives prominence to a preceding idea:
cum una legione eaque vacillante,

Caesar etiam privatas injurias ultus est, quod ejus soceri avum Tigurini interfecerant,
id. ib. 1, 12. —
5.
It is sometimes placed, for greater emphasis, after a relative:
multitudinem, quae fortunis vestris imminebat, eam... se fecisse commemorat, ut, etc.,
Cic. Mil. 35, 95; cf.:
urbem novam conditam vi et armis, jure eam legibusque de integro condere parat,
Liv. 1, 19, 1.—

(α).
Id, therefore, for that reason, on that account:
id ego gaudeo,
Cic. Q. Fr. 3, 1, 3:
id misera maesta est,
Plaut. Rud. 2, 3, 66:
idne estis auctores mihi?
do you advise me to that? Ter. Ad. 5, 8, 16.—
(β).
Id genus = ejus generis, Gell. 9, 12, 13:
aliquid id genus scribere,
Cic. Att. 13, 12, 3.—
(γ).
Ad id, for that purpose:
ad id quod sua quemque mala cogebant, evocati,
Liv. 3, 7, 8: ad id quod = praeterquam quod, besides that:
consul ad id, quod, etc., tunc quoque, etc.,
id. 44, 37, 12; 3, 62, 1; 26, 45, 8 al.—
(δ).
In id, to that end, on that account, therefore:
in id fide a rege accepta,
Liv. 28, 17.—
(ε).
In eo est, it is gone so far, is at that pass:
quod ad me de Lentulo scribis, non est in eo,
it is not come to that, is not so, Cic. Att. 12, 40:
cum jam in eo esset, ut in muros evaderet miles,
when the soldiers were just on the point of scaling the walls, Liv. 2, 17, 5; 28, 22, 8; Nep. Milt. 7, 3: in eo est, also, it consists in that, depends upon that:
totum in eo est tectorium, ut sit concinnum,
Cic. Q. Fr. 3, 1, 1, § 1:
ejus omnis oratio versata est in eo, ut, etc.,
id. de Or. 1, 57, 254:
sic velim enitare quasi in eo mihi sint omnia,
id. Fam. 15, 14.—
(ζ).
Ex eo, from that, hence:
sed tamen ex eo, quod eam voluptatem videtur amplexari saepe vehementius, etc.,
Cic. Fin. 2, 9. —
(η).
Cum eo, ut (with subj.), with the condition or stipulation that, etc., Liv. 8, 14.—
(θ).
Eo, adverbially, with the comp., so much, by so much; but frequently to be expressed in English by the, Cic. Quint. 9; so id. Q. Fr. 3, 1, 5.—
D.
Sometimes is refers to the foll. substantive, instead of to the preceding relative:
quae vectigalia locasset, ea rata locatio (for eorum),
Liv. 23, 11:
ea libera conjectura est (for de hac re),
id. 4, 20:
quae pars major erit, eo stabitur consilio (for ejus),
id. 7, 35:
existit ea, quae gemma dicitur,
Cic. de Sen. 15.—Sometimes, for emphasis, it is placed before the relative quod, to represent a thought or clause:
ratus, id quod negotium poscebat, Jugurtham venturum,
Sall. J. 56, 1; id. C. 51, 20:
sive ille hoc ingenio potuisset, sive, id quod constaret, Platonis studiosus audiendi fuisset,
Cic. de Or. 1, 20, 89:
si nos, id quod debet, nostra patria delectat,
id. ib. 1, 44, 196:
si, id quod facile factu fuit, vi armisque superassem,
id. Sest. 17, 39; 13, 30; so,
id quo,
id. Inv. 1, 26, 39:
id de quo,
Liv. 21, 10, 9. — It is thus apparently pleonastic after substantives: Octavio Mamilio—is longe princeps Latini nominis erat...—ei Mamilio filiam nuptum dat, Liv. 1, 49, 9:
cultrum, quem habebat, eum defigit,
id. 1, 58, 11; cf. id. 3, 58, 1.—It is rarely pleonastic after the relative:
quod ne id facere posses, idcirco dixeram,
Cic. Ac. 2, 25, 79 dub. (B. and K. bracket id). —
II.
He, she, it; that man or the man ( woman, thing), the one, that one, as a correlative to qui:
si is, qui erit adductus,
Cic. Verr. 2, 3, 89, § 207:
is mihi profecto servus spectatus satis, Cui dominus curae est,
Ter. Ad. 5, 6, 5. And also in the first person:
haec tibi scribo... is, qui flevi,
Sen. Ep. 1.—
III.
Such, of such a sort, character, or quality:
in eum jam rediit locum, ut, etc.,
Ter. Heaut. 2, 3, 118:
neque enim tu is es, qui, quid sis, nescias,
Cic. Fam. 5, 12, 6; 4, 7, 2:
itaque ego is in illum sum, quem tu me esse vis,
id. Att. 7, 8, 1:
is eram natus... ut potuerim,
Liv. 7, 40, 8.— Adj.:
nec tamen eas cenas quaero, ut magnae reliquiae fiant,
Cic. Fam. 9, 16, 8; id. Clu. 70:
quae causae sunt ejus modi, ut de earum jure dubium esse non possit,
id. de Or. 1, 57, 241:
est enim credo is vir iste, ut civitatis nomen sua auctoritate sustineat,
id. Fl. 15, 34. —
B.
Such, so great, of so high a degree:
L. Mescinius ea mecum consuetudine conjunctus est, quod mihi quaestor fuit,
Cic. Fam. 13, 26, 1.—Hence, advv.
1.
ĕā (sc. parte, viā, etc.), on that side, by that way, there:
quod eā proxime accedi poterat,
Cic. Caecin. 8, 21:
itinera muniit: effecit ut eā elephantus ornatus ire posset, quā antea, etc.,
Nep. Ham. 3 fin.:
postquam comperit, transitum eā non esse,
Liv. 21, 32, 9; 5, 43, 2; 24, 2 fin.; 26, 11 fin.; 27, 15 fin. al. —
