• SUCCEED
  • Transitively, To follow, sequi: subsequi. [Vid: FOLLOW.]
  • To follow another in a post or office, succedere alicui or in alicujus locum (general term, to take the place of another): in alicujus locum subrogari or suffici (to be elected to an office in the place of a person dead or discharged; the former, of election by the comitia; the latter, of election by the people). To succeed one on a throne, succedere regno in locum alicujus.
  • Intransitively, To have a prosperous issue, succedere: procedere (☞ the former rarely with bene or prospere, the latter rarely without one or the other; ☞ Herzog, Caes., B.G., 7, 26). It has succeeded to my wish, ex sententia successit (opposed to parum processit): a thing succeeds with me, succedit mini aliquid (it has a good result or issue); prospere or ex sententia evenit aliquid (it has the desired result).
