PREFACE.
Ab, before a consonant more nan. a in early authors, sometimes abs (but only
before to or the ablative of qui). [b*i] prep, governing abl., denoting se
paration or departure. I. In space. II. In time. III. In reference
to a person, not only as one who is quitted, but also as one from whom any
action proceeds. 1. 1. From, away from, down from, nunc quidem
paullulura, inquit, a sole, (Diogenes) said, at present I wish that you
would stand a little out of the sunshine ; but generally ab does not mean
oat of. It is sometimes joined with usque : as, usque a capitolio, all the

or short), off (after verbs of motion or of position) : ab millibus passuum
minus dnobus castra posuerunt, they pitched their camp less than two

metaph.), it may often be translated to : as, turn bellum prope a Sicilii
fuit, at that time war was near to Sicily, Cic; secundus a rege, se
cond to the king, Caes. ; so, alieno a te animo fuit, he was of a dis
position unfriendly to you, Cic. 3. On, on the side of: as, a dextra,

favourable to our adversaries than to us, Cic. 4. From, against, (after
words of defending) safety, etc. 5. From, (after verbs of preventing)
desisting, etc 6. To (after verbs of fastening) : as, religatus a puppi,
fastened to the stern, Cic II. From, after, at, since : as, ab sole orto,
from or after sunrise, Liv. ; a principio, at the beginning, Cic; cen-
tesima lax est hsec ab interitu Clodli, this is the hundredth day since the
death of Clodius, Cic ; ab his prsceptis dimisit concionem, after or
with the6e injunctions he dismissed the assembly, Liv. III. From,
by (of the agent, not of the instrument) ; sometimes, but more rarely, of the
cause.
ab is also used in some peculiar meanings, hardly coming under any of
these heads. In, out of: as, Gallus linguam ab irrisu exserens, the Gaul
putting out his tongue in, or out of derision, liv. Of, out of (where
ex would be more usual) : as, a quibus missus Regulus, of whom Regulus
being sent, Liv. In regard to, in respect of, nihil est ab omni part
beatum, nothing is happy in every respect ; hos sumus impar.v.i cum
a militibus turn a pecunia, we are unprovided in respect both of men and
money, Cic Foreign to : as, haud ab re duxi, I have not thought
it foreign to the subject, Liv.
