      1. 1. dēsīdĕro, 1: the longer he is away, the more I m. him, quanto diutius abest, tanto magis desidero, Ter. Heaut. 3, 1, 16: Cic. So expr. by dēsīdĕrium, with a verb: he m.'d his son so dreadfully, ita magno desiderio fuit ei filius, Ter. Heaut. 4, 4, 5: so, desiderio teneri alicujus rei, Cic. Sen. 10, 33. See also missing (adj.).
      2. 2. rĕquīro, quīsīvi, ītum, 3 (to look for without finding): to m. the ornaments of peace and the resources of war, et pacis ornamenta et belli subsidia r., Cic. Man. 2, fin.: I m. many whom once I saw, multos requiro quos quondam vidi, Ov. M. 7, 515. So sometimes quaero: Prop. 1, 17, 18.
