curru

a-scendo ( ads-, Jan; ads- and as-, Müller; as-, other editors), scendi, scensum, 3, v. n. [scando], to ascend, mount up, climb; and in eccl. Lat. simply to go up, to rise, to spring up, grow up (syn.: scando, conscendo, orior, surgo, prodeo).

Lit. (opp. descendo; and diff. from escendo, which designates a climbing, mounting upon some high object, and involves the idea of exertion; cf. Oud. ad Caes. B. G. 7, 27; Suet. Caes. 61; Ochsn. Ecl. pp. 287 and 288; Doed. Syn. IV. pp. 60 and 61; it often interchanges with escendere in MSS.; cf. e. g. Halm ad Nep. Epam. 4, 5; id. Them. 8, 6, and v. examples below; class.; in Cic. and in Vulg. very freq.), constr. most freq. with in, but also with ad with super, supra, contra, adversus, with acc., and absol. (in Cic. in the lit. signif., except once with the acc., always with in with acc.; but in the trop. signif. in all constrr.).

Et mora, quae fluvios passim refrenat aventes,

which restrains the eager river, Lucr. 6, 531, where Lachm. and Munro read euntīs:

Talem dira sibi scelerisque dolique ministram Quaerit avens,

Val. Fl. 2, 123; Aur. Vict. Caes. 3.—

Avens = libens, Laev. ap. Gell. 19, 7.— ăventer, adv., eagerly, earnestly (post - class.), Sid. Ep. 2, 2; v. Amm. 18, 5 and 19.

ăvĕo (or, acc. to Quint. 1, 6, 21, hă-vĕo; cf. Spald. ad l. l. and Schneid. Gr. 1, p. 185), ēre, v. n. [v. 1. aveo init. ], to be or fare well; except once in Mamert., used only in the imper. ave, aveto, avete, and inf. avere, as a form of salutation, both at meeting and separating, like salve and chaire (hence, Fest. p. 13 explains it by gaudeo).

In gen., Hail! God bless thee, farewell! adieu (prob. not used by Cic.): Caesar simulatque, Have, mihi dixit, statim exposuit, [p. 214] i. e. had saluted me, Cael. ap. Cic. Fam. 8, 16, 4:

numquam dicis Ave, sed reddis etc.,

Mart. 3, 95, 1:

Ave! gratiā plena, Dominus tecum!

Vulg. Luc. 1, 28:

Jesus occurrit illis dicens Avete!

ib. Matt. 28, 9.—

Vulg. Matt. 26, 49; 27, 29; ib. Marc. 15, 18; ib. Joan. 19, 3.—Haveto at the end of a letter, Cato ap. Sall. C. 35, 6; and Ave at the beginning, August. ap. Gell. 15, 7, 3:

Marcus avere jubet,

Mart. 3, 5, 10 al. —

Esp.

As a morning greeting (diff. from vale, a greeting at separating in the evening; cf. Suet. Galb. 4:

ut liberti servique mane salvere, vesperi valere sibi singuli dicerent): et matutinum portat ineptus ave,

Mart. 1, 56, 6; 1, 56, 109 fin.; 4, 79, 4; 7, 39, 2.—

As a farewell to the dead, = vale: Atque in perpetuom, frater, ave atque vale, *Cat. 101, 10;

and so frequently in inscriptions,

Inscr. Orell. 2663; 4732; 4734; 4735;

4742. But in Martial avere is distinguished, as a greeting to the living, from valere, a greeting to the dead: Jam satis est, Afer: non vis avere: vale!

Mart. 9, 7, 4. And thus the ambiguity of avere in the anecdote in Suet. Claud. 21 is to be explained: Emissurus (Claudius) Fucinum lacum naumachiam ante commisit. Sed cum proclamantibus naumachiariis, Ave ( farewell), Imperator, morituri te salutant: respondisset, Avete vos (i. e. as dying), neque post hanc vocem, quasi venia data (since they interpreted the exclamation as live!), quisquam dimicare vellet, etc.—

As a mere expression of goodwill (eccl. Lat.):

nec Ave ei dixeritis,

nor bid him God-speed, Vulg. 2 Joan. 10, 11.

.. cum is avere jubeat, qui jam fecit, ut averem, Mamert. Grat. Act. ad Julian.

cantus, ūs, m. [id.], the production of melodious sound, a musical utterance or expression, either with voice or instrument; hence, song, singing, playing, music (while carmen is prop. the contents or substance of the song, etc.; cf.:

Jam mens praetrepidans avet vagari,

Cat. 46, 7:

avet (ara) spargier agno,

Hor. C. 4, 11, 7:

ipsum L. Paulum omnium oculi conspicere urbem curru ingredientem avent,

Liv. 45, 39, 8; 33, 32, 8; Col. 3, 21, 6:

avebat animus antire statimque memorare exitus,

Tac. A. 4, 71; 12, 36.—

With acc.:

quia semper aves quod abest, praesentia temnis,

Lucr. 3, 957; so id. 3, 1082; 3, 1083:

parto, quod avebas,

Hor. S. 1, 1, 94:

aveo genus legationis ut, etc.,

Cic. Att. 15, 11 fin. (acc. to conj. of Gronov.; so B. and K.; v. Orell. ad h. l.); Sil. 9, 371.—

Absol.:

Et mora, quae fluvios passim refrenat aventes,

which restrains the eager river, Lucr. 6, 531, where Lachm. and Munro read euntīs:

Talem dira sibi scelerisque dolique ministram Quaerit avens,

Val. Fl. 2, 123; Aur. Vict. Caes. 3.—

Avens = libens, Laev. ap. Gell. 19, 7.— ăventer, adv., eagerly, earnestly (post - class.), Sid. Ep. 2, 2; v. Amm. 18, 5 and 19.

ăvĕo (or, acc. to Quint. 1, 6, 21, hă-vĕo; cf. Spald. ad l. l. and Schneid. Gr. 1, p. 185), ēre, v. n. [v. 1. aveo init. ], to be or fare well; except once in Mamert., used only in the imper. ave, aveto, avete, and inf. avere, as a form of salutation, both at meeting and separating, like salve and chaire (hence, Fest. p. 13 explains it by gaudeo).

In gen., Hail! God bless thee, farewell! adieu (prob. not used by Cic.): Caesar simulatque, Have, mihi dixit, statim exposuit, [p. 214] i. e. had saluted me, Cael. ap. Cic. Fam. 8, 16, 4:

numquam dicis Ave, sed reddis etc.,

Mart. 3, 95, 1:

Ave! gratiā plena, Dominus tecum!

Vulg. Luc. 1, 28:

Jesus occurrit illis dicens Avete!

ib. Matt. 28, 9.—

In mock homage (eccl. Lat.): dixit Ave! Rabbi,

Vulg. Matt. 26, 49; 27, 29; ib. Marc. 15, 18; ib. Joan. 19, 3.—Haveto at the end of a letter, Cato ap. Sall. C. 35, 6; and Ave at the beginning, August. ap. Gell. 15, 7, 3:

Marcus avere jubet,

Mart. 3, 5, 10 al. —

Esp.

As a morning greeting (diff. from vale, a greeting at separating in the evening; cf. Suet. Galb. 4:

ut liberti servique mane salvere, vesperi valere sibi singuli dicerent): et matutinum portat ineptus ave,

Mart. 1, 56, 6; 1, 56, 109 fin.; 4, 79, 4; 7, 39, 2.—

As a farewell to the dead, = vale: Atque in perpetuom, frater, ave atque vale, *Cat. 101, 10;

and so frequently in inscriptions,

Inscr. Orell. 2663; 4732; 4734; 4735;

4742. But in Martial avere is distinguished, as a greeting to the living, from valere, a greeting to the dead: Jam satis est, Afer: non vis avere: vale!

Mart. 9, 7, 4. And thus the ambiguity of avere in the anecdote in Suet. Claud. 21 is to be explained: Emissurus (Claudius) Fucinum lacum naumachiam ante commisit. Sed cum proclamantibus naumachiariis, Ave ( farewell), Imperator, morituri te salutant: respondisset, Avete vos (i. e. as dying), neque post hanc vocem, quasi venia data (since they interpreted the exclamation as live!), quisquam dimicare vellet, etc.—

As a mere expression of goodwill (eccl. Lat.):

nec Ave ei dixeritis,

nor bid him God-speed, Vulg. 2 Joan. 10, 11.

.. cum is avere jubeat, qui jam fecit, ut averem, Mamert. Grat. Act. ad Julian.

insĭdĕo, sēdi, sessum, 2, v. n. and a. [in-sedeo], to sit in or upon any thing; mostly with dat. (class.).
