      1. 1. hīc, haec, hoc (sometimes strengthened by ce: hicce, haecce, hocce: gen. sing. hujusce or hujusque: nom. pl. fem. haec: gen. horunc, harunc, with interrog. part. hiccine, haeccine, etc., this, where I am: the dem. pron. of the first pers.): I will venture to call you from t. new academy to that old one, audebo te ab hac academia nova ad veterem illam vocare, Cic. Fin. 5, 3, 7: shall t. man die anywhere but in his own country? hiccine vir usquam nisi in patria morietur? id. Mil. 38, 104: before t. time, ante hoc tempus, id. Acad. 1, 1, 3: t. is that answer which was given by Solon, hoc illud est quod a Solone responsum est, id. Sen. 20, 72: was it for t. that ...? hoc erat quod ...? Virg.

      2. 2. iste, a, ud, or strengthened istic, aec, oc, or uc (that near here, pron. of the second pers., hence sometimes t., esp. in the stronger form): Pl.: Ter.: Cic.: v. that.
      3. 3. this ... that: hic is used to denote the nearer object; but as this may be the nearer to the speaker's mind, it is not always used of the nearer noun in the sentence, though this is usu. the case: v. L. Gr. § 366, and Obs. The combinations are the foll.--(i.) hic ... ille; ille ... hic: if these remedies fail we must have recourse to those, si deerunt haec remedia ad illa declinandum est, Quint. 7, 2, 30. according to the opportunity of this side or that, ex occasione hujus aut illius partis, Liv. 24, 3, ad fin.: in Cic.

(iii.) hic ... hic (esp. in poet.): t. man skilled in the use of the dart, that one in the use of the bow, hic jaculo bonus, hic sagitta, Virg. Aen. 9, 572. (iv.) hic ... alter; alter ... hic: Cic. Rosc. Am. 6, 17: Ov. M. 1, 293: v. ONE, No. V.; also latter, former: in Tac. A. 14, 8, we have hi ... hi ... alii ... quidam.
      4. 4. t. way ... that way; on t. side ... on that side: huc atque illuc, Cic. de Or. 1, 40, 184; hinc et hinc, Hor. Epod. 2, 31: hac ... hac, Virg. Aen. 1, 467: v. HITHER ... THITHER. Phr.: to t. was added that, huc accedebat quod, Caes. B. G. 5, 6: from t., hinc: v. hence: in Cic. Rosc. Am. 27, 75, inde has the same force: for t. reason, isto, Pl. Rud. 4, 7, 8: neither in t. affair nor elsewhere, neque istic neque alibi, Ter. Andr. 2, 5, 9: v. here.
