In drawing a logical conclusion (but not with et, atque, que; v. Krebs, Antibarb. p. 540), therefore, accordingly, consequently: St. Ligna hic apud nos nulla sunt. Co. Sunt asseres. St. Sunt pol. Co. Sunt igitur ligna, Plaut. Aul. 2, 6, 8:
si enim est aliquid in rerum natura, quod hominis mens, quod ratio, quod vis, quod potestas humana efficere non possit, est certe id, quod illud efficit, homine melius. Atqui res caelestes omnesque eae, quarum est ordo sempiternus, ab homine confici non possunt. Est igitur id, quo illa conficiuntur, homine melius,
Cic. N. D. 2, 6, 16: quid ergo haec ab illa conclusione differt, Si mentiris, mentiris;
mentiris autem, mentiris igitur?
id. Ac. 2, 30, 96; id. Tusc. 4, 17, 40: quodsi melius geruntur, quae consilio, quam quae sine consilio administrantur;

Cic. Tusc. 1, 29, 71; cf. id. ib. 1, 34, 82; 1, 36, 88: sequitur, ut nihil paeniteat, nihil desit, nihil obstet: ergo omnia profluenter, absolute, prospere;

corresp. with ergo,
id. Lael. 14 fin., and 15 init.:
atqui falsum quod est, id percipi non potest, ut vobismet ipsis placet. Si igitur memoria perceptarum comprehensarumque rerum est: omnia, etc.,
id. Fin. 2, 33, 106.—
C.
In consecutive interrogations, then:

dicet aliquis: Haec igitur est tua disciplina? sic tu instituis adulescentes?
Cic. Cael. 17, 39; id. Fam. 9, 10, 2:
id indigne ferens ille: Hunc igitur, regem agnoscimus, inquit?

quin igitur ulciscimur Graeciam et urbi faces subdimus?
id. 5, 7, 4; cf. id. 10, 6, 23.—
D.
In resuming an interrupted thought:
cum Q. Metellus L. F. causam de pecuniis repetundis diceret, ille, ille vir, cui patriae salus dulcior quam conspectus fuit, qui de civitate decedere quam de sententia maluit: hoc igitur causam dicente, cum, etc.,
Cic. Balb. 5, 11; id. Off. 1, 2, 6; id. Tusc. 1, 13, 30; id. Brut. 48, 177 al.—Esp. after a parenthesis: recta effectio (katorthôsin enim ita appello, quoniam rectum factum katorthôma) recta igitur effectio crescendi accessionem nullam habet, Cic. Fin. 3, 14, 45; 2, 22, 74:
scripsi etiam (nam etiam ab orationibus dijungo me fere, etc.) scripsi igitur Aristotelio more, etc.,
id. Fam. 1, 9, 23:
tu enim sapienter (nunc demum enim rescribo iis litteris, quas mihi misisti convento Antonio Tiburi) sapienter igitur, quod manus dedisti, etc.,

rerum autem cognitiones (quas vel comprehensiones vel perceptiones appellemus licet) has igitur ipsas propter se asciscendas arbitramur,

E.
In emphatically repeating a word or thought:
quae mihi omnia grata sunt, de L. Mescinio gratissimum... id igitur—puto enim etiam atque etiam mihi dicendum esse—velim existimes mihi te fecisse gratissimum,
Cic. Fam. 13, 28 a, 1:
ea vis, ea igitur ipsa, quae, etc.,
id. Mil. 31, 84.—
F.
In returning to or summing up a preceding train of thought, I say then, so then, as I was saying, in short: ut cum videmus speciem primum candoremque caeli;
deinde conversionis celeritatem tantam, quantam, etc.... tum vicissitudines dierum ac noctium... tum globum terrae eminentem e mari... tum multitudinem pecudum... hominemque ipsum... atque hominis utilitati agros omnes ac maria parentia: haec igitur et alia innumerabilia cum cernimus, etc.,
Cic. Tusc. 1, 28, 70; id. Cat. 4, 11, 23; id. Fam. 13, 1, 3; id. de Or. 2, 25, 105 al.—
G.
To introduce a special amplification of a thought previously introduced in general terms, then:
de hominibus dici non necesse est. Tribus igitur modis video, etc.,
Cic. Fin. 1, 20, 66; id. Brut. 32, 122:
quoniam pluribus modis accipi solet, non equidem in omnes eam particulas secabo, sed maxime necessarias attingam. Est igitur unum genus, etc.,
Quint. 8, 3, 63:
ut igitur ante meridiem discesserunt, etc.,
Cic. de Or. 3, 5, 17:
sit igitur (ut supra significavi) divisio rerum plurium in singulas, partitio singularum in partes discretus ordo,
Quint. 7, 1. 1:
prima est igitur amplificandi vel minuendi species,
id. 8, 4, 1 (v. also III. A. below).—
III.
Position.
A.
Sometimes igitur begins a sentence (in Cic. only in sense last described, II. E. above; freq. in Sall., Tac., Curt., and Liv.;
v. Zumpt, Gram. § 357): nunc juris principia videamus. Igitur doctissimis viris proficisci placuit a lege, etc.,
Cic. Leg. 1, 6, 18:
igitur his genus, aetas, eloquentia prope aequalia fuere,
Sall. C. 54, 1; 46, 3; Quint. 1, 1, 1: de quo, quia nunc primum oblatus est, pauca repetam:
nam et ipse pars Romanarum cladium erit. Igitur matre libertina ortus, etc.,
Tac. A. 15, 72; 1, 31.—
B.
Igitur is sometimes placed after several words:
referamus nos igitur ad eum quem volumus incohandum,
Cic. Or. 9, 33:
eamne rationem igitur sequare?
id. Fin. 2, 23, 76:
quid dicis igitur?
id. Tusc. 1, 6, 12; cf.:
quid me igitur mones?
id. Div. 2, 64, 132:
paria sunt igitur,
id. Fin. 4, 27, 75; cf.:
videndum est igitur,
id. Off. 1, 14, 43:
hujus quoque igitur criminis, te accusante, mentio nulla fiet,
id. Div. in Caecil. 10, 32:
huic homini parcetis igitur?
id. Verr. 2, 1, 32, § 81:
in hominem dicendum est igitur,
id. Fl. 10, 23:
hi autem non sunt: ne Nymphae quidem deae igitur?
id. N. D. 3, 17, 43; cf.:
ne in animo quidem igitur sensus remanet,
id. Tusc. 1, 34, 82:
ille mihi videtur igitur vere augurari,
id. Div. 1, 15, 27:
quae est melior igitur in hominum genere natura?
id. Tusc. 1, 14, 32:
quid tibi negoti est meae domi igitur?
Plaut. Ep. 3, 4, 63.
