When a new thought is added to what precedes, as an enlargement of it, it is introduced by adde, adde huc, adde quod, and the like (cf. accedo), add to this, add to this the circumstance that, or besides, moreover...:
adde furorem animi proprium atque oblivia rerum, adde quod in nigras lethargi mergitur undas,
Lucr. 3, 828 sq. (cf. the third verse before: advenit id quod eam de rebus saepe futuris Macerat):

addebat etiam, se in legem Voconiam juratum contra eam facere non audere,

and with an anticipatory dem. pron.: Addit etiam illud, equites non optimos fuisse,

addito ut luna infra terram sit,
Plin. 15, 17, 18, § 62 (cf.:
adjuncto ut... haberentur,
Cic. Off. 2, 12).— Hence, addĭtus, a, um, P. a. (addo I.), joined to one as a constant observer; so,
A.
Watching or observing in a hostile or troublesome manner: si mihi non praetor siet additus atque agitet me, Lucil. ap. Macr. Sat. 6, 4.—Hence, in gen.,
B.
