18 Transactions. — Miscellaneous. 



Tac, Hist. iv. 7. 

 Per altercationem ad continuas et infestas orationes jpro- 

 vecti sunt. 



Tac, Ann. ii. 55. 



Eo usque corruptionis provcctus est. 

 Provecta nox (Tac, Ann. xiii. 20). 



Provectus aetate, j^f'ovecta senectus, clearly come within 

 the scope of the reflexive or middle verb. 



Gircumvehi : — 



Liv., iii. 28, 1. 



Equo circumvectus contemplatusque qui tractus castrorum 

 sit ; 



and absolutely in 



Liv., X. 29, 12. 



Quingentos fere equites excedere acie jubet, et circuvivectos 

 a tergo Gallicam invadere aciem. 



Curtius, iv. 15, 5. 

 Equitibus ad diripienda hostis impedimenta circumvehi 

 jussis. 



Cf. Liv., xxi. 54, 1, 



Evehi : — 



Liv., V. 36, 7. 



Quintus Fabius evectus extra aciem equo. 



On which cf. 



Liv. xxix. 34, 12. 



Primo incaute se evehentcs Massinissa excipiebat. 



Cf. Liv. iv. 33. 



In the sense of travelling about we find vehor and its com- 

 pounds commonly used : — 



Liv., i. 21, 10 : curru arcuato. Tac, Ann. i. 15 : curru. 

 Plant., Amphit. 833 : una navi. 



Cf. also Liv., iii. 70, 6 : reveheretur. Hor., Sat. ii. 5, 4 : 

 revehi. Liv., ii. 47, 6 : revectus. Liv., ii. 47, 3 : advectus. 

 Tac, Ann. ii. 5 : advectus. Tac, Ann. i. 51 : advectus. Plaut., 

 Amph. 325: vectus. Plant., Amph. 724: rectus. Tac, Ann. 

 i. 63 : evehi. Doubtless the force of the reflexive in these ex- 

 pressions is causative. 



[A familiar instance in a derived language will be inomc- 

 ner, se inomencr ; proviener un enfant, take a child out for a 

 walk ; se promener a cJieval, take oneself out for a turn on 

 horseback. The general disuse of the passive voice in modern 

 French and its replacement by impersonals or reflexives is 

 noticed above.] 



Verti. 



Verto is used intransitively in a somewhat middle or 

 reflexive sense.
