Pelides cedere nescius,

Hor. C. 1, 6, 6:

di, quibus ensis et ignis Cesserunt,

i. e. who remained unhurt in the destruction of Troy, Ov. M. 15, 862:

eidem tempori, ejusdem furori, eisdem consulibus, eisdem minis, insidiis, periculis,

Cic. Sest. 29, 63; so,

Sall. C. 34, 2:

Nep. Cim. 3, 2:

majorum natu auctoritati,

id. Timoth. 3, 4:

loco iniquo, non hosti cessum,

Liv. 8, 38, 9:

oneri,

Quint. 10, 1, 24:

vincentibus vitiis,

id. 8, 3, 45:

malis,

Verg. A. 6, 95 et saep.—

To yield to in rank, distinction, etc., i. e. to be inferior to:

cum tibi aetas nostra jam cederet, fascesque summitteret,

Cic. Brut. 6, 22:

nullā aliā re nisi immortalitate cedens caelestibus,

id. N. D. 2, 61, 153:

neque multum cedebant virtute nostris,

Caes. B. G. 2, 6; Quint. 1, 6, 36: Picenis cedunt pomis Tiburtia suco;

Nam facie praestant,

Hor. S. 2, 4, 70; so,

id. 33, 3, 19, § 59.— Impers.:

ut non multum Graecis cederetur,

Cic. Tusc. 1, 3, 5; Liv. 24, 6, 8. —

To comply with the wishes, to yield to one:

cessit auctoritati amplissimi viri vel potius paruit,

Cic. Lig. 7, 21; cf. Tac. A. 12, 5:

precibus,

Cic. Planc. 4, 9:

cessit tibi blandienti Cerberus,

cf,

id. Ep. 1, 18, 43 sq.; Verg. A. 2, 704; 3, 188; Ov. M. 6, 32; 6, 151; 9, 13;

9, 16: omnes in unum cedebant,

Tac. A. 6, 43; 3, 16; cf. id. ib. 12, 10 and 41.—Hence,

Act.: cedere (alicui) aliquid = concedere, to grant, concede, allow, give up, yield, permit something to some one:

permitto aliquid iracundiae tuae, do adulescentiae, cedo amicitiae, tribuo parenti,

hac victoriā contenta plebes cessit patribus, ut in praesentiā tribuni crearentur, etc.,

Liv. 6, 42, 3; Tac. A. 12, 41: non cedere with quominus, Quint. 5, 7, 2.—

In respect to the terminus ad quem, to arrive, attain to, come somewhere:

cedunt, petunt,

Plaut. Aul. 3, 5, 43:

ibi ad postremum cedit miles, aes petit,

id. ib. 3, 5, 52.—

Trop.:

hoc cedere ad factum volo,

come to its execution, Plaut. Capt. 2, 2, 102.—

Cedere alicui or in aliquem, to come to, fall ( as a possession) to one, to fall to his lot or share, [p. 308] accrue:

ut is quaestus huic cederet,

Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 70, § 170:

captiva corpora Romanis cessere,

Liv. 31, 46, 16:

nolle ominari quae captae urbi cessura forent,

aurum ex hostibus captum in paucorum praedam cessisse,

Liv. 6, 14, 12; Curt. 7, 6, 16; Tac. A. 15, 45; for which: cedere praedae (dat.) alicujus, Liv. 43, 19, 12; and:

praeda cedit alicui,

Hor. C. 3, 20, 7:

ab Tullo res omnis Albana in Romanum cesserit imperium,

Liv. 1, 52, 2; Hor. Ep. 2, 2, 174:

in dicionem M. Antonii provinciae cesserant,

Tac. H. 5, 9.—

Cedere in aliquid, like abire in aliquid (v. abeo, II.), to be changed or to pass into something, to be equivalent to or become something:

poena in vicem fidei cesserat,

Liv. 6, 34, 2; cf.:

temeritas in gloriam cesserat,

Curt. 3, 6, 18; Plin. 35, 10, 36, § 91; Tac. H. 2, 59 fin.; id. G. 36; Plin. Pan. 83, 4:

in proverbium,

Quint. 5, 11, 36.—Hence, * cēdenter, adv. of the part. pres. cedens (not used as P. a.), by yielding, Cael. Aur. Acut. 3, 16, 129.

cĕdo, old imperat. form, whose contr. plur. is cette (cf. Prob. II. p. 1486 P.; Non. p. 84, 31 sq.) [compounded of the particle -ce and the root da-; v. 1. do], hither with it! here! give! tell, say (implying great haste, familiarity, authority, and so differing from praebe, dic, etc.); cf. Key, § 731.

In gen., hither with it, give or bring here.

With acc.:

cesso, āvi, ātum, 1, v. freq. n. and a. [1. cedo]; lit., to stand back very much; hence, to be remiss in any thing, to delay, loiter, or, in gen., to cease from, stop, give over (indicating a blamable remissness; while desinere, intermittere, requiescere do not include that idea: cessat desidiosus, requiescit fessus, Don. ad Ter. Eun. 3, 1, 15. Diff. from cunctari in this, that the latter designates inaction arising from want of resolution, but cessare that which is the result of slothfulness; cf. Doed. Syn. 3, p. 300 sq.;

class. in prose and poetry): paulum si cessassem,

Ter. Eun. 4, 4, 5; 4, 6, 16; id. Ad. 4, 2, 49:

Cic. N. D. 3, 39, 93; cf. id. ib. 1, 9, 22; id. Off. 3, 1, 1: nisi forte ego vobis cessare nunc videor;
