Liv. 40, 8, 18:

missis in vicem eorum quinque milibus sociorum,

id. 31, 11, 3; Col. 5, 6, 1; so dat. vici, Quint. Decl. 6, 4.—

Ad vicem, instead of, for:

ad tegularum et imbricum vicem,

Plin. 36, 22, 44, § 159:

ad vicem solis cinis calidus subjectus,

Pall. 4, 10 fin.; 3, 28;

very rarely, ad invicem,

Veg. Vet. 2, 7 fin. —

In a more general sense (cf. in the preced. numbers a. and b.), after the manner of, like:

majores natu a majoribus colebantur ad deum prope ad parentum vicem,

Gell. 2, 15, 1.
