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 perincommode, quod eum nusquam vidisti,

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,

timeo “incertum” hoc quorsum accidat,

Ter. And. 1, 5, 29:

si secus acciderit,

Cic. Fam. 6, 21, 2. —

In gram., to belong to:
