id. Rosc. Com. 10, 28; cf. Sall. C. 10, 5; Caes. B. G. 3, 20, 1; Planc. ap. Cic. Fam. 10, 4, 2 al.:

IV.
In composition, ex (cf. dis) before vowels and h, and before c, p, q, t (exagito, exeo, exigo, exoro, exuro, exhaurio; excedo, expello, exquiro, extraho); ef (sometimes ec) before f (effero, effluo, effringo; also in good MSS. ecfero, ecfari, ecfodio), elsewhere e (eblandior, educo, egredior, eicio, eligo, emitto, enitor, evado, eveho). A few exceptions are found, viz., in ex: epoto and epotus as well as expotus, and escendo as well as exscensio; in e: exbibo as well as ebibo; exballisto, exbola; exdorsuo; exfututa as well as effutuo; exfibulo; exlex, etc. After ex in compounds s is [p. 671] often elided in MSS. and edd. Both forms are correct, but the best usage and analogy favor the retaining of the s; so, exsaevio, exsanguis, exscensio, exscindo, exscribo, exsculpo, exseco, exsecror, exsequiae, exsequor, exsero, exsicco, exsilio, exsilium, exsisto, exsolvo, exsomnis, exsorbeo, exsors, exspecto, exspes, exspiro, exspolio, exspuo, exsterno, exstimulo, exstinguo, exstirpo, exsto, exstruo, exsudo, exsugo, exsul, exsulto, exsupero, exsurgo, exsuscito, and some others, with their derivv.; cf. Ribbeck, Prol. Verg. p. 445 sq. Only in escendere and escensio is the elision of x before s sustained by preponderant usage; cf. Neue, Formenl. 2, p. 766.—
B.
Signification.
1.
Primarily and most freq. of place, out or forth: exeo, elabor, educo, evado, etc.; and in an upward direction: emineo, effervesco, effero, erigo, exsurgo, exsulto, extollo, everto, etc.—Hence also, trop., out of ( a former nature), as in effeminare, qs. to change out of his own nature into that of a woman: effero, are, to render wild; thus ex comes to denote privation or negation, Engl. un-: exanimare, excusare, enodare, exonerare, effrenare, egelidus, I., elinguis, elumbis, etc.—
2.
Throughout, to the end: effervesco, effero, elugeo; so in the neuter verbs which in composition (esp. since the Aug. per.) become active: egredior, enavigo, eno, enitor, excedo, etc.—Hence, thoroughly, utterly, completely: elaudare, emori, enecare, evastare, evincere (but eminari and eminatio are false readings for minari and minatio; q. v.); and hence a simple enhancing of the principal idea: edurus, efferus, elamentabilis, egelidus, exacerbo, exaugeo, excolo, edisco, elaboro, etc. In many compounds, however, of post - Aug. and especially of post-class. Latinity this force of ex is no longer distinct; so in appellations of color: exalbidus, exaluminatus, etc.; so in exabusus, exambire, exancillatus, etc. Vid. Hand Turs. II. Pp. 613-662.

Ipse stands in free constr. with abl. absol. as with finite verb (cf. also quisque;
only freq. in Liv. and post-Aug. writers): cum dies venit, causa ipse pro se dicta, quindecim milibus aeris damnatur,
Liv. 4, 44, 10 Weissenb. ad loc.:

In reflexive uses,
1.
Ipse strengthens the subject when opposed in thought to other agents; the object, when opposed to other objects; cf. Zumpt, Gram. § 696; Kennedy, Gram. § 67, 3; Madv. Gram. § 487, 6. — Hence,
a.
With subject.
(α).
In gen.:
non egeo medicina (i. e. ut alii me consolentur), me ipse consolor,
Cic. Lael. 3, 10:
Junius necem sibi ipse conscivit,
id. N. D. 2, 3, 7:
neque potest exercitum is continere imperator, qui se ipse non continet,
id. de Imp. Pomp. 13, 38:

Liv. 24, 4, 9:
deforme etiam est de se ipsum praedicare,
Cic. Off. 1, 38, 137.—
(β).
With special emphasis, ipse is joined to the subject to indicate its relation to itself as both subject and object, though the antithesis would suggest another case (Cic.):
cum iste sic erat humilis atque demissus, ut non modo populo Romano, sed etiam sibi ipse condemnatus videretur,
Cic. Verr. 1, 6, 17:
si quis ipse sibi inimicus est,
id. Fin. 5, 10, 28:

quoniam se ipsi omnes natura diligant,
id. ib. 3, 18, 59:

Pompeianus miles fratrem suum, dein se ipsum interfecit,
Tac. H. 3, 51:
Lentulum, quem mihi ipsi antepono,
Cic. Fam. 3, 7, 5.—
2.
Ipse defines the subject of a reflexive pronoun:
natura movet infantem, sed tantum ut se ipse diligat (where ipse shows that se refers to infantem),
Cic. Fin. 2, 10, 33: proinde consulant sibi ipsi;
jubeant abire se,
Just. 16, 4, 15:
neque prius vim adhibendam putaverunt, quam se ipse indicasset,
Nep. Paus. 4:
in portis murisque sibimet ipsos tecta coëgerat aedificare,
Liv. 27, 3, 2 (cf. 1. a. supra).—
3.
Ipse stands for the reflexive pronoun,
a.
Where the person or thing referred to is to be emphatically distinguished from others (class.):
cum omnes se expetendos putent, nec id ob aliam rem, sed propter ipsos, necesse est ejus etiam partes propter se expeti, etc.,
Cic. Fin. 5, 17, 46:
quis umquam consul senatum ipsius decretis parere prohibuit?
id. Sest. 14, 32:
quos, quidquid ipsis expediat, facturos arbitrabimur,
id. Fin. 2, 35, 117:
qui negant se recusare, quo minus, ipsis mortuis, terrarum deflagratio consequatur,
id. ib. 3, 19, 64:
nec quid ipsius natura sit intellegit,
id. ib. 5, 9, 24.—
b.
In a subordinate clause, to point out either the subject of the principal clause, or the chief agent or speaker;
esp. where se or sibi is already applied to the subject of the subordinate clause: ne ob eam rem aut suae magnopere virtuti tribueret aut ipsos despiceret,
Caes. B. G. 1, 13, 5:
legatos ad consulem mittit, qui tantum modo ipsi liberisque vitam peterent,
Sall. J. 16, 2; cf.:
ipsis mortuis,
Cic. Fin. 3, 19, 64:
supra nihil, quantum in ipso est, praetermittere quo minus, etc.,
id. Leg. 1, 21, 56:
ipsius,
id. ib. 2, 22, 55:
nihil umquam audivi... nihil de re publica gravius, nihil de ipso modestius, i. e. de ipso dicente,
id. Balb. 1, 2: id quod ipsum adjuvat (i. e. dicentem;
opp. id quod adversario prodest),
id. Inv. 1, 21, 30.—
c.
In gen., for an emphatic se or sibi (mostly post-Aug.; v. Madv. ad Cic. Fin. 3, 12, 40):
nam ipsis certum esse, etc.,
Liv. 35, 46, 13:
pravitas consulum discordiaque inter ipsos,
id. 4, 26, 6:
inexperta remedia haud injuria ipsis esse suspecta,
Curt. 3, 5, 15:
Graecis nuntiare jubet, ipsum quidem gratias agere, etc.,
id. 3, 8, 7:
dixit, ab illo deo ipsos genus ducere,
id. 4, 2, 3:
a quibus nec acceperunt injuriam nec accepisse ipsos existimant, Sen. de Ira, 2, 5, 1: intemperantiam in morbo suam experti parere ipsis vetant,
id. ib. 3, 13, 5:
sciunt ipsos omnia habere communia,
id. Ep. 6, 3; 22, 10 et saep.; cf.:
verum est etiam iis, qui aliquando futuri sint, esse propter ipsos consulendum,
Cic. Fin. 3, 19, 64.—
4.
Ipse stands in free constr. with abl. absol. as with finite verb (cf. also quisque;
only freq. in Liv. and post-Aug. writers): cum dies venit, causa ipse pro se dicta, quindecim milibus aeris damnatur,
Liv. 4, 44, 10 Weissenb. ad loc.:
Romani imperatores, junctis et ipsi exercitibus... ad sedem hostium pervenere,
id. 29, 2, 2:
C. Popilius, dimissis et ipse Atticis navibus... pergit,
id. 45, 10, 2; cf.:
Catilina et Autronius parabant consules interficere, ipsi fascibus conreptis Pisonem cum exercitu mittere,
Sall. C. 18, 5:
amisso et ipse Pacoro,
Tac. G. 37; cf. also the emphatic use of ipse (like quisque) with abl. of gerund (freq. in Liv.):
adsentando indignandoque et ipse,
Liv. 40, 23, 1:
cogendo ipse,
id. 39, 49, 3:
agendo ipse,
id. 41, 24, 2:
aestimando ipse secum,
id. 25, 23, 11 et saep.
► Ipse is very rarely strengthened by the suffix -met:
ipsemet abiit,
Plaut.
Am. prol. 102:
ipsimet nobis,
Cic. Verr. 2, 3, 1, § 3:
ipsemet profugiam,
Sen. Ep. 117, 21; also Front. Aq. 74 ex conj.— Sup.: Com. Ergo ipsusne es? Charm. Ipsissumus, his own very self, Plaut. Trin. 4, 2, 146; cf. Gr. autotatos, Aristoph. Plut. 83; so,
ipsimus and ipsima, for dominus and domina (cf II. A. supra),
Petr. 75, 11; and:
ipsimi nostri,
id. 63, 3 Büch. ex conj.
