id. Mur. 4, 8; and:
quae si dubia essent, tamen, etc.,

II.

nostri sensus, ut in pace semper, sic tum etiam in bello congruebant (= cum... tum),
Cic. Marcell. 6, 16:
ut sunt, sic etiam nominantur senes,
id. Sen. 6, 20:
utinam ut culpam, sic etiam suspitionem vitare potuisses,
id. Phil. 1, 13, 33:
ut superiorum aetatum studia occidunt, sic occidunt etiam senectutis,

ut voce, sic etiam oratione,
id. Or. 25, 85; id. Top. 15, 59; id. Leg. 2, 25, 62; id. Lael. 5, 19.—More rarely with quem ad modum, quomodo:

Cic. Att. 10, 4, 2:
quo modo ad bene vivendum, sic etiam ad beate,
id. Tusc. 3, 17, 37. —
3.
With a clause of manner introduced by ut = so that:
sic fuimus semper comparati ut hominum sermonibus quasi in aliquod judicium vocaremur,
Cic. Or. 3, 9, 32:
eam sic audio ut Plautum mihi aut Naevium videar audire,
id. ib. 3, 12, 45:
sic agam vobiscum ut aliquid de vestris vitiis audiatis,
id. ib. 3, 12, 46:
omnia sic suppetunt ut ei nullam deesse virtutem oratoris putem,
id. Brut. 71, 250:
omnis pars orationis esse debet laudabilis, sic ut verbum nullum excidat,
id. Or. 36, 125:
sic tecum agam ut vel respondendi vel interpellandi potestatem faciam,
id. Rosc. Am. 27, 73:
nec vero sic erat umquam non paratus Milo contra illum ut non satis fere esset paratus,
id. Mil. 21, 56:

G. 2, 32; 5, 17; id. B. C. 3, 56; Prop. 1, 21, 5.—Sometimes the correlative clause is restrictive, and sic = but so, yet so, only so:
mihi sic placuit ut cetera Antisthenis, hominis acuti magis quam eruditi,
Cic. Att. 12, 38, 4:
sic conveniet reprehendi, ut demonstretur etc.,
id. Inv. 1, 46, 86; id. Brut. 79, 274; id. Marcell. 11, 34; id. Att. 13, 3, 1 (ita is more freq. in this sense).—
4.
With a clause expressing intensity (so both with adjj. and verbs; but far less freq. than ita, tam, adeo), to such a degree, so, so far, etc.:
sic ego illum in timorem dabo, ipse sese ut neget esse eum qui siet,
Plaut. Ps. 4, 1, 20 sq.:
conficior lacrimis sic ut ferre non possim,
Cic. Fam. 14, 4, 1:
sic rem fuisse apertam ut judicium fieri nihil attinuerit,
id. Inv. 2, 28, 84:

5.
Rarely conditional clauses have the antecedent sic.

Sen. Ep. 105, 3:
sic hodie veniet si qua negavit heri,
Prop. 2, 14 (3, 6), 20.—
b.
Denoting with the proviso that, but only if (usu. ita):
decreverunt ut cum populus regem jussisset, id sic ratum esset si patres auctores fuissent,
that the choice should be valid, but only if the Senate should ratify it, Liv. 1, 17, 9:
sic ignovisse putato Me tibi si cenes hodie mecum,
Hor. Ep. 1, 7, 69.—
6.
Sic quia = idcirco quia (very rare): Th. Quid vos? Insanin' estis? Tr. Quidum? Th. Sic quia foris ambulatis, Plaut. Most. 2, 2, 20.—
7.
With inf. clause (freq.):
sic igitur sentio, naturam primum atque ingenium ad dicendum vim afferre maximam,
Cic. Or. 1, 25, 113:
sic a majoribus nostris accepimus, praetorem quaestori suo parentis loco esse oportere,
id. Div. in Caecil. 19, 61:
ego sic existimo, in summo imperatore quattuor res inesse oportere,

sic habeto, in eum statum tuum reditum incidere ut, etc.,
Cic. Fam. 2, 3, 1; so id. ib. 1, 7, 3; 2, 6, 5; 2, 10, 1; 7, 18, 1; 9, 16, 2; id. Att. 2, 25, 1; 5, 1, 5; 5, 20, 1 et saep.—
8.
With ut, expressing purpose or result:
nunc sic faciam, sic consilium est, ad erum ut veniam docte atque astu,
Plaut. Rud. 4, 2, 23:
ab Ariobarzane sic contendi ut talenta, quae mihi pollicebatur, illi daret,

sic accidit ut ex tanto navium numero nulla omnino navis... desideraretur,
Caes. B. G. 5, 23; cf. Cato, R. R. 1, 1; Cic. Att. 8, 1, 4; id. Or. 2, 67, 271.
V.
Idiomatic usages of sic.
1.
In a wish, expressed as a conclusion after an imperative ( poet.):
parce: sic bene sub tenera parva quiescat humo (= si parces, bene quiescat),
Tib. 2, 6, 30:
annue: sic tibi sint intonsi, Phoebe, capilli,
id. 2, 5, 121:
pone, precor, fastus... Sic tibi nec vernum nascentia frigus adurat Poma, nec excutiant rapidi florentia venti,

Sic tibi sint dominae, Lygdame, dempta juga,
Prop. 4, 5, 1; Tib. 2, 6, 30.—The imperative may follow the clause with sic:
sic tua Cyrneas fugiant examina taxos... Incipe (sc. cantare) si quid habes (= si incipies cantare, opto tibi ut tua examina, etc.),

also: sic venias hodierne: tibi dem turis honores (=si venies, tibi dem),
Tib. 1, 7, 53; cf. Ov. H. 3, 135; 4, 148.—
2.
Sic (like ita) with ut in strong asseveration ( poet.):
sic me di amabunt, ut me tuarum miseritum'st fortunarum (= by the love of the gods, I pity, etc.),
Ter. Heaut. 3, 1, 54:
Diespiter me sic amabit ut ego hanc familiam interire cupio,
Plaut. Poen. 4, 2, 47:
sic has deus aequoris artes Adjuvet, ut nemo jamdudum littore in isto constitit,

Tib. 2, 5, 63.—
3.
In a demonstrative temporal force, like the Gr. houtôs, so, as the matter stands now, as it now is, as it then was, etc.
(α).
In gen.:
e Graecis cavendae sunt quaedam familiaritates, praeter hominum perpaucorum, si qui sunt vetere Graecia digni. Sic vero fallaces sunt permulti et leves,
but as things now stand, Cic. Q. Fr. 1, 1, 5, § 16:
at sic citius qui te expedias his aerumnis reperias,
Ter. Hec. 3, 1, 8: Pe. Pol tibi istuc credo nomen actutum fore. Tr. Dum interea sic sit, istuc actutum sino, provided it be as it is, Plaut. Most. 1, 1, 71:
quotiens hoc tibi ego interdixi, meam ne sic volgo pollicitarere operam,
thus, as you are doing now, id. Mil. 4, 2, 65:

naked, as they are, Cic. Rosc. Am. 26, 71:

me germanam meam sororem tibi sic sine dote dedisse,
so as she is, without a dowry, Plaut. Trin. 3, 2, 65:
sic sine malo,
id. Rud. 3, 5, 2:
at operam perire meam sic... perpeti nequeo,
without result, id. Trin. 3, 2, 34 Ritschl, Fleck. (Brix omits sic): nec sic de nihilo fulminis ira cadit (= without cause), Prop. 2, 16 (3, 8), 52: mirabar hoc si sic abiret, so, i. e. without trouble, Ter. And. 1, 2, 4:
hoc non poterit sic abire,
Cic. Fin. 5, 3, 7; so,
sic abire,
id. Att. 14, 1, 1; Cat. 14, 16; Plaut. Men. 5, 7, 39. —Hence,
(β).
With imperatives, esp. with sine: Quid ego hoc faciam postea? sic sine eumpse, just let him alone, i. e. leave him as he is, Plaut. Most. 1, 4, 32:
si non vult (numerare), sic sine adstet,
id. As. 2, 4, 54:
sine fores sic, abi,
let the door alone, id. Men. 2, 3, 1; so id. Cas. 3, 6, 36; id. Ps. 1, 5, 62.—
(γ).
Pregn., implying a concession (= kai houtôs), even as it is now, even without doing so, in spite of it:
nolo bis iterare, sat sic longae fiunt fabulae,
narratives are long enough anyhow, as they are, without saying them twice over, Plaut. Ps. 1, 3, 154:
sed sic quoque erat tamen Acis,
even as it was, in spite of what has been said, Ov. M. 13, 896; so,
sic quoque fallebat,
id. ib. 1, 698:
sed sic me et libertatis fructu privas et diligentiae,
anyhow, not taking into account what is mentioned, Cic. Fam. 5, 20, 4: exhibeas molestiam si quid debeam, qui nunc sic tam es molestus, who art so troublesome even as it is, i. e. without my owing you any thing, Plaut. Pers. 2, 44:
sic quoque parte plebis affecta, fides tamen publica potior senatui fuit,
Liv. 7, 27; cf. Ov. F. 2, 642; Suet. Aug. 78.—
4.
Ellipt., referring to something in the mind of the speaker:
Quod si hoc nunc sic incipiam? Nihil est. Quod si sic? Tantumdem egero. At sic opinor? Non potest,
Ter. Heaut. 4, 2, 8: illa quae aliis sic, aliis secus videntur, to some in one way, to others in another (= aliis aliter), Cic. Leg. 1, 17, 47: Quid vini absumpsit! Sic hoc dicens, asperum hoc est, aliud lenius, = this wine is so (the speaker not saying what he thinks of it), Ter. Heaut. 3, 1, 49: deinde quod illa (quae ego dixi) sive faceta sunt, sive sic, fiunt narrante te venustissima, or so, i. e. or otherwise, Cic. Fam. 15, 21, 2:
monitorem non desiderabit qui dicat, Sic incede, sic cena... sic amico utere, sic cive, sic socio,
Sen. Ep. 114.—
5.
