Sall. J. 35, 3; Liv. 2, 40 fin.; 9, 41 et saep.: si quid sibi eveniret, if any thing should happen to himself, euphemist. for if he should die, Suet. Caes. 86 Ruhnk.; Vop. Prob. 6 fin.; cf.:

Sall. H. Fragm. 5, 8, p. 244 ed. Gerl. (v. 2. accido, II.).—

ut vox etiam ad hostes accideret captum Cominium esse,

Liv. 10, 41, 7:

quia repente fama accidit classem Punicam adventare,

the report came, id. 27, 29, 7; v. Weissenb. a. h. l.

Fig.

In gen., to fall out, come to pass, happen, occur; and with dat. pers., to happen to, to befall one. (The distinction between the syn. evenio, accido, and contingo is this: evenio, i. e. ex-venio, is used of either fortunate or unfortunate events: accido, of occurrences which take us by surprise; hence it is used either of an indifferent, or, which is its general use, of an unfortunate occurrence: contingo, i. e. contango, indicates that an event accords with [p. 17] one's wishes; and hence is generally used of fortunate events. As Isid. says, Differ. 1: Contingunt bona: accidunt mala: eveniunt utraque):

res accidit,

Caes. B. G. 1, 14;

Id acciderat, ut Galli consilium caperent,

ib. 3, 2:

accidit satis opportune,

Caes. B. G. 4, 22; cf. Brem. Nep. Milt. 1, 1; Herz. Caes. B. G. 7, 3.—Constr. with ut (Zumpt, § 621), sometimes with quod:

accidit perincommode, quod eum nusquam vidisti,

Cic. Att. 1, 17; or with inf.:

nec enim acciderat mihi opus esse,

id. Fam. 6, 11. Pleonast. in narrations: accidit ut, it happened, or came to pass, that: accidit ut una nocte omnes Hermae dejicerentur, it happened that, etc., Nep. Alc. 3, 2; so Cic. Fam. 3, 8, 8; id. Att. 1, 5, 4 al.—

In part.

Si quid cui accidat, or si quid humanitus accidat, euphemist. for to die; if any thing should happen to one (for which Ennius says:

si quid me fuerit humanitus, Ann. v. 128 ed. Vahl.): si quid pupillo accidisset,

Cic. Inv. 2, 21; Caes. B. G. 1, 18;

si quid mihi humanitus accidisset,

Cic. Phil. 1, 4; Dig. 34, 4, 30 § 2 al. (cf. the Greek ei ti pathoi); so, per aposiopesin, sive—quod heu timeo, sive superstes eris, Ov. Her. 13, 164. (But Cic. Mil. 22, 58; Caes. B. G. 2, 35, and similar passages, are to be taken in the usual signif.)—

To turn out (this very rare):

timeo “incertum” hoc quorsum accidat,

Ter. And. 1, 5, 29:

si secus acciderit,

Cic. Fam. 6, 21, 2. —

In gram., to belong to:

plurima huic (verbo) accidunt (i. e. genus, tempora),

Quint. 1, 5, 41 al.
