10 Transactions. — Miscellaneous. 



Erigi. Ovid, Met. i. 744. 



Officioque pedum nymphe contenta duorum, 



Ericjitur. 



The maid stretches herself, and by the service of her two 

 feet stands erect. (Contenta is here from contendor, and is- 

 reflexive. Continerl is reflexive in Liv., xxii. 55, 6.) 



Yet cf. Cses., G. vi. 27: erigcre sese. 



Exerceri. Virg., Aen. vii. 163. 



Exercent^LT equis, domitantque in pulvere currus. 



So Virg., Georg. iv. 159 : exerccntur agris. 



Exercentur equis. Exercentur agi'is. Notice Coniugton's 

 hesitation in the two passages quoted : equis he says is the 

 ablative of the instrument, while agris he thinks is locative. 

 As if the riders are exercised by the horses ! (which, indeed, 

 in a certain sense may be true). 



Yet note that cxercere se is a common locution : Cic, De 

 Senect. c. 14. 



-fendo. Tac, Ann. ii. 55. 



Offensus urbi propria quoque ira. 



Infcnsus is used actively, e.g., infcstis auimis, equum 

 infestus admisit, &c. 



Infensus is passive in : Infensum omnem agrum reddidit — 

 he made the whole Eoman territory so unsafe. 



This usage is noticed in all dictt. s.v. 



Ferri. Lucr., i. 290. 



Sic igitur debent venti quoque ferri. 



In this way then must the blasts of wind move on. 

 (Monro.) That is, "bear themselves along." 



Liv., vi. 30, 4. 

 Dum praesidio ut essent cii'AXi for untur. 



Liv., ix. 13, 2. 

 In hostem /(Snm^2»'. 



Caes., G. ii. 24. 

 Ferehantur. 



Virg., Aen. vii. G73. 



Densa inter tela, feruntar. 



Liv., v. 26, 7. 

 Castra sua quae propiora erant praelati urbem peterent. 



Liv., vi. 29, 3. 

 Praeter castra etiam suo pavore inaclati. 



Liv. vii. 24, 8. 



Praeter castra etiani fuga inaelati. 



So also Liv., ii. 14, 7 ; Liv., xxxviii. 27, 2; et ubique.
