• He touched none he did not adorn

• not simply 'the Midas touch', or 'he left things better than he found them', but a tribute to a Renaissance man

af-fĭcĭo (better adf-), affēci (adf-), affectum (adf-), 3, v. a. [facio], to do something to one, i. e. to exert an influence on body or mind, so that it is brought into such or such a state (used by the poets rarely, by Hor. never).

With acc. and abl., to affect a person or (rarely) thing with something; in a good sense, to bestow upon, grace with; in a bad sense, to visit with, inflict upon; or the ablative and verb may be rendered by the verb corresponding to the ablative, and if an adjective accompany the ablative, this adjective becomes an adverb.—Of inanimate things (rare): luce locum adficiens, lighting up the place, Varr. ap. Non. p. 250, 2:

in Q. Mucii infirmissimā valetudine adfectāque jam aetate,

Tert. Anim. 45.

af-flo (better adf-), āvi, ātum, 1, v. a. and n.

Stat. S. 5, 1, 146:

crinem sparsum cervicibus adflare,

were wafted, exhaled, Cic. Sen. 17; Prop. 3, 27, 17.—

Trop., to blow or breathe to or on.

sperat sibi auram posse aliquam adflari voluntatis,

Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 13:

Serv. ad Verg. A. 10, 677:

immo cum gemitu populum sic adorat,

App. Met. 2, p. 127; 3, p. 130: adorare apud antiquos significabat agere: unde et legati oratores dicuntur, quia mandata populi agunt, Paul. ex Fest. p. 19 Müll.; cf. oro and orator.— Hence, also, in judicial lang., to bring an accusation, to accuse; so in the Fragm. of the XII. Tab. lex viii.: SEI (Si) ADORAT FVRTO QVOD NEC MANIFESTVM ERIT, Fest. S. V. NEC, p. 162 Müll.—

In the class. per., to speak to one in order to obtain something of him; to ask or entreat one, esp. a deity, to pray earnestly, to beseech, supplicate, implore; constr. with acc., ut, or the simple subj.:

in rupes, in saxa (volens vos Turnus adoro) Ferte ratem,

id. ib. 10, 677:

adorati di, ut bene ac feliciter eveniret,

Ov. P. 2, 2, 55.—With the subj. without ut, poet.:

maneat sic semper adoro,

I pray, Prop. 1, 4, 27.—

Hence,

Dropping the idea of asking, entreating, to reverence, honor, adore, worship the gods or objects of nature regarded as gods; more emphatic than venerari, and denoting the highest degree of reverence (Gr. proskunein); the habitus adorantium was to put the right hand to the mouth and turn about the entire body to the right (dextratio, q. v.); cf. Plin. 28, 2, 5, § 25; Liv. 5, 21; App. M. 4, 28. —Constr. with acc., dat., with prepp. or absol.

Quint. 10, 1, 88:

Juv. 13, 148:

nec tu divinam Aeneida tenta, Sed longe sequere et vestigia semper adora,

Stat. Th. 12, 816.—

Under the emperors the Oriental custom being introduced of worshipping the Cæsars with divine ceremony, to worship, to reverence:

C. Caesarem adorari ut deum constituit, cum reversus ex Syria, non aliter adire ausus esset quam capite velato circumvertensque se, deinde procumbens,

Suet. Vit. 2; App. M. 4, 28; Min. Fel. 2, 5:

non salutari, sed adorari se jubet (Alexander),

Just. 12, 7:

adorare Caesarum imagines,

Suet. Calig. 14: coronam a judicibus ad se delatam adoravit, did obeisance before, id. Ner. 12:

adorare purpuram principis,

i. e. touched his purple robe and brought it to the mouth in reverence, Amm. 21, 9.—Of adulation to the rabble, to pay court to:

nec deerat Otho protendens manus, adorare volgum,

Tac. H. 1, 36.

; for in Arch. 11, 28, where adoravi was given by Mai in Fragm. p. 124, Halm reads adhortatus sum, and B. and K. adornavi.

at-trecto ( adt-, Weissenb., Halm; att-, Ritschl, Rib., Kayser), āvi, ātum, 1, v. a. [tracto], to touch, handle, freq. in an unlawful manner (syn.: contrecto, tracto, tango, palpo).

Vulg. Isa. 59, 10.—

Trop.: Facilis est illa occursatio et blanditia popularis; aspicitur, non attrectatur;

procul apparet, non excutitur (the figure is derived from paintings or other works of art),

it is looked at, not touched, Cic. Planc. 12 Wund.—Also, to appropriate to one's self:

Liv. 34, 4, 2:

fasces securesque,

id. 28, 24:

Tac. A. 3, 52.— To feel after, seek to find (eccl. Lat.):
