VID 
VID 
VIE 
(for a blind man is spoken of; but an¬ 
other reading is vivebat .).— Viden-e is 
also used of inanimate tilings. Virg. 
Abies visura casus marinos, about to see,, 
experience. — Also, Videre, to see, h. e. 
to get , receive. Liv. speciem regni pa- 
terni. Cic. Qui suo toto consulatu som- 
num non viderit, did not see sleep, did 
not sleep. — Also, to see, h. e. to endure, 
undergo, experience. Terent. Quam ibi 
miseriam vidi! —— 11 Also, to see, go 
to see, call upon, wait upon, for the pur¬ 
pose of conversing and transacting bu¬ 
siness with one. Cic. Othonem vide, 
spealc with Otho. Id. Sed Septimium 
vide, et Lamatem, et Statilium : tribus 
emmopusest. Plin. Ep. Rogo, inane 
videos Plinium domi, et efiicias, ne, 
&c.-11 Also, to see, look at, look to 
it, consider, reflect. Cic. Id primum vi- 
deamus, quatenus amor progredi debe¬ 
at. Id. Nunc ea videamus, quae contra 
disputari solent. Petron. Utram (cou- 
ditionem) tu accipias, vide. Tereat. 
Vide, quid agas. Id. De matre videro. 
-H Also, to see, look to it, take care, 
have a care, be careful, take heed, beware. 
Cic. Videndum est, ne obsit benigni- 
tas. Id. Quamobrem et hrec videnda, 
et pecunice fugienda cupiditas. Id. Vi- 
deant, ne turpe miserumque sit. 
Hence, Vide, ne, &c. see, that not, 
stands often for / fear, that; as, Cic. 
Vide, ne nulla sit divinatio. So, also, 
Id. Videndum est, ne non satis sit, h. e. 
it is to be feared, &c.-IT Also, to see, 
see to it, take care, interest one’s self. 
Cic. Ut navem idoneam habeas, vide- 
bis. Terent. Ut recte fiant, videbo. 
Plant. Vide, efferantur omnia, see that 
all things, &c. Cic. Videre alicui, 
take care for. So, Terent. Recte ego 
mihi vidissem, should have looked out for 
myself, should have provided for myself. 
Also, to take care for, provide, furnish, 
procure, prepare or have prepared, take 
care of, conduct. Cic. Antecesserat 
Statius, ut prandium nobis videret, h. e. 
to provide, order. Terent. Asperum 
(vinum) hoc est: aliud lenius vide. 
Cic. Sed valebis, meaque negotia vide- 
bis. Id. Philippum dixisse eonstabat, 
videndum sibi aliud esse consilium. 
Also, Videris, viderit, &c. you, &c. 
may see to it, you, &c. may see, h. e. / 
leave it to you, it concerns me not; as, 
Cic. Tu quemadmodum his satis fa- 
cias ? videris. Ovid. Viderit ista deus. 
Cic. Viderint ista officia viri boni, let 
good men see to. Id. LegiBruti episto- 
lam non prudenter rescriptam: sed 
ipse viderit, let him see to that himself. 
And, absol. Ovid. Trist. 5, 2, 23. Vide¬ 
rit, h. e. it may happen as it will for me, 
it troubles me not. -U Also, to see 
about, h. e. to treat or speak of. Cic. 
Alio loco de aratorum animo vide¬ 
ro. Id. Illud, quod ccepimus, videa¬ 
mus, It. e. look at, go through with, ex¬ 
amine. -H Also, to look at or upon. Cic. 
Quin tu me vides, why do you not look 
at me 7 but look at me, see how much better 
I do. Ilorat. Quern tu placido lumine 
videris. — Hence, to look upon, have an 
eye upon, have in view, have before the 
eyes. Cic. Majus quiddam videbam. 
Id. Vidit aliud, had another object. Liv. 
Cujus mens nihil prater commodum 
publicum videt. It may also be ren¬ 
dered, to strive for; as, Liv. Qui mag- 
nam gloriam vident. — And, also, to 
look upon, mark, rest upon, trust to, de¬ 
pend upon. Terent. Istuc ipsum nihil 
pericli est: me vide, depend upon me, 
trust me for that, my word for it. - 
II Videro often stands for videbo. Te¬ 
rent. and Cic. -- II Videsis, or vide 
sis, with short e. Pers. -IT See 
Videor. 
VIDESR, eris, vlsus sum, pass, of video, 
is used in the various meanings of vi¬ 
deo. Thus, to be seen, bpdopai. Te¬ 
rent. Ohe ( Da .) visus sum, I have been 
seen. Cic. Quo viso atque persuaso. 
Liv. Equites procul visi. Cic. Qui - 
neque videntur a nobis. Id. Ea, quie 
vel furiosis videntur. Virg. Videbit 
heroas, et ipse videbiturillis (dat.), shall 
be seen by them. Hence, Visum, subst. 
(which see by itself). Also, Videtur, vi- 
deatur, we see, one sees, it is seen, &c. 
Cic. Qui quamobrem Roscium similem 
sui in fraude et malitia existimarit, ni¬ 
hil videtur, one cannot see why, no cause 
appears why. Id. Hoc potest separatim 
perscribi, ut proprio senatusconsulto 
Pompeius collaudatus esse videatur, 
that it may be seen, that, &c. Id. Et 
quales ipsi quoque oratores, qua sint 
eetate, honove, auotoritate, debet videri, 
we ought to see. — Especially is Videri 
often to seem, have the appearance, ap¬ 
pear, be regarded in a certain light, pass 
for something, and has a double con¬ 
struction, personal and impersonal. Per¬ 
sonally, h. e. with a nomin. (or an ac- 
cus. when it is in the in fin.) expressed 
or understood going before, and an in- 
fin. following ; if this ivftn. be esse, the 
following predicate is also in the nomin. 
(unless the subject of videor was in 
accus.); esse is often wanting, in which 
case the predicate is in the nomin. (or 
accus. if the subject of videor was in 
accus.) Cic. Quae videretur esse, non 
qme esset. Id. Id, quod utile videre¬ 
tur (sc. esse). Id. Rem iniquiorem vi¬ 
sum iri intelligebant. Plant. Num ni- 
mio emptte tibi videntur ? do they appear 
to you to have been bought too dear 7 do 
you think they were bought at too high a 
price 7 Cic. Qute Pyrrhoni visa sunt 
pro nihilo, seemed nought to Pyrrho, 
passed for nothing with Pyrrho. Id. 
Amens mihi fuisse videor, methinhs I 
■have been mad. Id. Quibusdam sapiens 
videor fuisse: mihi contra, some re¬ 
gard me as having done wisely. Id. Ob- 
jurgavi senatum, ut mihi visus sum, 
summa cum auCtoritate. So, in a 
dream. Plaut. Mercari visus mihi 
sum capram, it seemed tv me that I, &c. 
Sometimes without the dat. Terent. 
Audirevocem visa sum militis, I seemed 
to hear, I thought I heard. The pred¬ 
icate is also found in the dat. ; as, 
Ilorat. Da mihi justo sanctoque videri. 
— Impersonally, h. e. not preceded by 
a subject (nomin. or accus. if the verb be 
infin.) Plaut. iEquum videtur tibi, ut 
dicam, &c. ? does it seem right to you 
that 17 &c., do you think it right, that 7 
&c. Liv. Fabio satis visum, ut orans 
urbeminiret. Plaut. Quid si servo ali- 
tervisum est? Also, with accus. and 
infin.; as, Cic. Non mihi videtur, ad 
beate vivendum satis posse virtutem (a 
construction which seems harsh to 
some scholars). So, also, Id. Malitia, 
qure vult videi’i, se esse prudentiam, 
will have the appearance of being, &c. 
(though we may make the order thus, 
vult, se videri esse, &c. ; vult videri esse 
prudentia would be the more usual 
form). Also, Videri, to seem good or 
fit, or to be resolved upon, to please or be 
pleasing; as, Cic. Nunc mihi visum 
est aliquid conscribere, I have thought it 
well, or have determined. Id. Earn quoque, 
si videtur, correctionem explicabo, if 
such be your pleasure. Id. Tibi si vide- 
bitur, villis iis utere, if it shall please 
you, if you shall have no objec¬ 
tion. Terent. Visum est mihi, ut ejus 
tentarem sententiam, it hath seemed 
good to me, I have thought it well. 
Cic. Qui imitamur, quos cuique visum 
est, sc. imitari, or imitandos esse. Id. 
Velim ei quse tibi videbitnr, attribuas, 
those whom it shall seem advisable to you, 
those whom you please; sc. attribuere, or 
esse attribuenda. So, also, of decrees 
or ordinances of a magistrate, or of the 
senate, personally and impersonally; 
as, Cic. Iste pronuntiat, Sthenium lit- 
teras publicas corrupisse videri, ap¬ 
pears to have, &c. ; that the opinion is 
that Sthenius has, &c. Liv. Scipionem 
recte atque ordine videri fecisse, quod 
eum regem appellaverit, that Scipio had 
in their opinion done rightly. Id. Con¬ 
sul adjecit senatusconsultum, Ambra- 
ciam non videri vi captam esse. Id. 
Quum pontifices decressent, videri, 
posse earn partem restitui, that it was 
their opinion, that they were of opinion. 
-IT Also, Videri, as pass, of video, 
when signifying to see, see to it, consider , 
reflect. Plaut. Vide sis modo etiam. 
( Lys.) Visum est.-11 Also, as pass. 
of video, signifying to see, take care for, 
provide, &c. Cic. Videndum esse aliud 
960 
consilium. - IT Supin. Vlsu; as, 
Virg. Terribiles visu (but this may be' 
also, ablat. of the subst. visus).
