Opp. to ille, iste, less freq. to hic, alter, alius, etc., this, the latter, to indicate the nearer object (which is to be determined not so much by the phraseology as by the thought; so that hic may refer to that noun whose position in the sentence is the more remote, but which is the most closely connected with the speaker, and of the most importance to him, in which case it is to be rendered by that, the former, etc.):

Referring to that which in the speaker's mind is the nearer object, although by the position of the words it is the more remote: quam ob rem cave Catoni anteponas ne istum quidem ipsum, quem Apollo sapientissimum judicavit (i. e. Socratem): Hujus enim (i. e. Catonis, of the former) facta, illius (i. e. Socratis) dicta laudantur, Cic. Lael. 2, 10; id. Rosc. Com. 2, 7:

quare hoc animo in nos esse debebis, ut aetas nostra, etc.,

id. Fam. 2, 1 fin.; id. Off. 3, 5, 22; id. Rep. 1, 12:

plurimum in hoc laboris exhausimus, ut ostenderemus, etc.,

Quint. 8 praef. § 6; cf.:

habenda fides est vel in hoc, ut, etc.,

id. 11, 2, 51; so,

in hoc, ut,

id. 6, 3, 15; 10, 3, 29: hoc erit tibi argumentum semper in promptu situm: Ne quid exspectes amicos, quod tute agere possies, Enn. ap. Gell. 2, 29 fin. (Sat. v. 37 Vahl.); so,

in hoc scilicet, ne suspectus his foret,

Vell. 2, 41 fin. —

Hoc est serves to annex a more particular explanation of what has been said, that is, that is to say, namely:

in hac causa dicam de eo prius, quod apud vos plurimum debet valere, hoc est, de voluntate eorum, quibus injuriae factae sunt,

Cic. Div. in Caecil. 4, 11:

quadriennium, hoc est, ex quo tempore fundus veniit,

id. Caecin. 7, 19; 34, 100:

cum honos agebatur amplissimus familiae vestrae, hoc est, consulatus parentis tui,

id. Sull. 17, 49; id. Fam. 5, 12, 8:

primum quaero, qua ratione Naevius susceptum negotium non transegerit, hoc est, cur bona non vendiderit,

id. Quint. 24, 76 et saep.—Sarcastically:

ut haberet (Clodius) ad praeturam gerendam, hoc est, ad evertendam rem publicam plenum annum,

Cic. Mil. 9, 24:

at quam crebro usurpat Et consul et Antonius! Hoc est dicere: Et consul et homo impudicissimus, Et consul et homo nequissimus,

id. Phil. 2, 28, 70.—

Hoc est or ĕrat, quod, with the accessory idea of indignation or reproach, is or was it for this that, etc.:

hoc erat, alma parens, quod me per tela, per ignis Eripis, ut mediis hostem in penetralibus... cernam?

Verg. A. 2, 664; Petr. 93.—Hence,

hāc, in this place, on this side, this way, here (class.): nunc Juppiter hac stat, Enn. ap. Macr. S. 6, 1 (Ann. v. 263 Vahl.); imitated by Verg. A. 12, 565: Ar. Hac quidem non venit. Le. Angiporto Illac per hortum circuit clam, Plaut. As. 3, 3, 151:

id. Heaut. 3, 2, 1; and: mox hac atque illa rapti, Tac. Agr. 28:

sequere hac, reducam te ubi fuisti,

this way, hither, Plaut. Capt. 3, 5, 106; id. As. 4, 2, 1; id. Men. 4, 1, 4; id. Poen. 1, 2, 116; id. Rud. 1, 2, 94; cf.:

Plaut. Bacch. 5, 2, 56; 62; Ter. Ad. 4, 2, 35 sq.:

quin igitur ad illa spatia nostra pergimus?... Nos vero: et hac quidem adire si placet, per ripam et umbram,

Cic. Leg. 1, 4, 14:

ab oppido declivis locus tenui fastigio vergebat. Hac nostris erat receptus,

Caes. B. C. 1, 45, 5; 2, 2, 3.—Hac-hac, for hac-illac ( poet.):

namque videbat, uti bellantes Pergama circum Hac fugerent Grai, Hac Phryges,

Verg. A. 1, 467 sq.; Prop. 1, 3, 13; rarely in full form with the interrog. particle ne:

utrum hacin feriam an ab laeva latus?

Plaut. Cist. 3, 10 (cf. Ladewig, Anal. Scaen. p. 22). —

hīc (old form heic; and with the interrog. part. ne, hicine), adv. loci, in this place, here.

In space.

Lit.:

hos quos videtis stare hic captivos duos, etc.... Senex qui hic habitat, etc.,

Plaut. Capt. prol. 1 sq.:

ego jam dudum hic adsum,

Ter. Eun. 4, 6, 5:

quem praestolare hic ante ostium?

id. ib. 5, 6, 5:

hic propter hunc adsiste,

id. Ad. 2, 1, 15:

Ov. M. 1, 319:

hic (sc. Carthagine) illius (Junonis) arma, Hic currus fuit,

Verg. A. 1, 16 et saep.: Pa. Philocomasium hicine etiam nunc est? Pe Quom exibam, hic erat, Plaut. Mil. 2, 2, 25; cf.: Ch. Ubi ego sum? hicine an apud mortuos? Eut. Neque apud mortuos neque hic es, id. Merc. 3, 4, 17:

hicine,

id. Cist. 1, 1, 21; 4, 2, 80; Ter. Ad. 2, 1, 29 al.: Da. Cedo fenus, redde fenus, fenus reddite, etc.... Tr. Fenus illic, fenus hic, Plaut. Most. 3, 1, 76:

facile hic plus mali est, quam illic boni,

hic proxume viciniae,

in this neighborhood, Plaut. Mil. 2, 3, 2:

modo vidi virginem hic viciniae miseram,

Ter. Phorm. 1, 2, 45.—With ne: hicine libertatem aiunt aequam esse omnibus? is it here that, etc., Ter. Ad. 2, 1, 29 (cf. hic, I. B. fin.).—

Transf., in this affair, on this occasion, in this particular, herein, here:

hic, quantum in bello fortuna possit, cognosci potuit,

hic jam plura non dicam,

id. ib. 9, 24; id. Planc. 41, 99; id. Verr. 2, 1, 26, § 66 (cf. II. fin. infra):

hic, ubi opus est, non verentur: illic, ubi nihil opus est, ibi verentur,

Ter. And. 4, 1, 14:

ut cum hic tibi satisfecerimus, istic quoque nostram in te benevolentiam navare possimus,

Cic. Fam. 3, 10, 3.—Referring to the noun whose position in the sentence is the most remote (cf. I. D. 2.):

alterius ducis causa melior videbatur, alterius erat firmior: hic omnia speciosa, illic valentia,

Vell. 2, 49, 3.—

Of time, i. q. nunc or tum, now, here; then, hereupon, at this time, at this juncture:

hic reddes omnia,

Ter. And. 2, 3, 15:

hic ego quid praedicem?

Cic. Sest. 5, 12; id. Cat. 1, 10, 26:

hic cum uterque me intueretur,

66 al.: hic regina gravem poposcit pateram,

Verg. A. 1, 728.—So very freq. to introduce the beginning of a speech: hic Laelius (inquit); hic Philus;

hic Scipio, etc.,

Cic. Rep. 1, 13, 23; 24 sq.; id. Fam. 1, 9, 10; 3, 8, 3; 5, 15, 4; id. Ac. 2, 4, 10; id. de Or. 2, 50, 202; Verg. A. 9, 246 et saep.—
