Or. 3, 25, 100; cf. id. ib. 19, 63. In contrasted clauses, mostly with ut, which may generally be rendered while: ut ad bella suscipienda Gallorum acer ac promptus est animus, sic mollis ad calamitates perferendas mens eorum est (almost = etsi ad bella suscipienda ... tamen mollis est, etc., while, etc.), Caes. B. G. 3, 19: a ceteris oblectationibus ut deseror, sic litteris sustentor et recreor, while I am deserted, I am sustained, etc., Cic. Att. 4, 10, 1; cf. id. Rosc. Am. 18, 55; id. Fam. 10, 20, 2; Liv. 4, 57, 11; Ov. M. 4, 131; 11, 76. So freq. two members of the same sentence are coordinated by ut... sic (ita) with almost the same force as a co-ordination by cum ... tum, or by sed: consul, ut fortasse vere, sic parum utiliter in praesens certamen respondit (= vere fortasse, sed parum utiliter),Liv. 4, 6, 2: ut nondum satis claram victoriam, sic prosperae spei pugnam imber diremit,id. 6, 32, 6: (forma erat) ut non cygnorum, sic albis proxima cygnis,Ov.

With a clause of manner introduced by ut = so that: sic fuimus semper comparati ut hominum sermonibus quasi in aliquod judicium vocaremur,Cic. Or. 3, 9, 32: eam sic audio ut Plautum mihi aut Naevium videar audire,id. ib. 3, 12, 45: sic agam vobiscum ut aliquid de vestris vitiis audiatis,id. ib. 3, 12, 46: omnia sic suppetunt ut ei nullam deesse virtutem oratoris putem,id.

Sometimes the correlative clause is restrictive, and sic = but so, yet so, only so: mihi sic placuit ut cetera Antisthenis, hominis acuti magis quam eruditi,Cic. Att. 12, 38, 4: sic conveniet reprehendi, ut demonstretur etc.,id. Inv. 1, 46, 86; id. Brut. 79, 274; id. Marcell. 11, 34; id. Att. 13, 3, 1 (ita is more freq. in this sense). With a clause expressing intensity (so both with adjj. and verbs; but far less freq. than ita, tam, adeo), to such a degree, so, so far, etc.: sic ego illum in timorem dabo, ipse sese ut neget esse eum qui siet,Plaut. Ps. 4, 1, 20 sq.: conficior lacrimis sic ut ferre non possim,Cic. Fam. 14, 4, 1: sic rem fuisse apertam ut judicium fieri nihil attinuerit,id.

Rep. 2, 21, 37; 3, 9, 15; id. Lael. 1, 4; id. Planc. 8, 21; Cic. Verr. 1, 36, 91; id. Balb. 5, 13; id. Att. 1, 8, 2; 1, 16, 1; Caes. B. G. 6, 41; Hor. S. 2, 3, 1. Rarely conditional clauses have the antecedent sic. Poet. and in post-Aug. prose, to represent the result of the condition as sure: sic invidiam effugies, si te non ingesseris oculis, si bona tua non jactaveris, si scieris in sinu gaudere,Sen. Ep. 105, 3: sic hodie veniet si qua negavit heri,Prop. 2, 14 (3, 6), 20. Denoting with the proviso that, but only if (usu. ita): decreverunt ut cum populus regem jussisset, id sic ratum esset si patres auctores fuissent,
that the choice should be valid
,
but only if the Senate should ratify it

Aug. 28.Neutr, with double nom., = exsistere, to be, to become: judex extremae sistet vitaeque necisque, he will become a judge, etc., Manil. 4, 548 (dub.): tempora quod sistant propriis parentia signis,id. 3, 529 (dub.; al. sic stant; cf. infra, II.). As neuter verb, to stand, rest, be placed, lie (poet.); constr. like sto: ne quis mihi obstiterit obviam, nam qui obstiterit, ore sistet,
will lie on his face
,Plaut. Capt. 4, 2, 13 Brix ad loc.: (nemo sit) tantā gloriā ... quin cadat, quin capite sistat, will be placed or stand on his head, id. Curc. 2, 3, 8: ibi crebro, credo, capite sistebant cadi,id. Mil. 3, 2, 36 Lorenz (Brix, hoc illi crebro capite): ipsum si quicquam posse in se sistere credis,

,Verg. A. 3, 7; cf.: quaesitisque diu terris, ubi sistere detur,Ov. M. 1, 307. As jurid. term. In both a causative and neuter sense = to produce in court, or to appear in court after being bound over by the judge or by promise to the adversary (vadimonium); constr. either absol. or with the dat. of the adversary to whom the promise is made (alicui sisti), to appear upon somebody's demand; also, in judicio sisti. The present active is either used reflexively (se sistere = to appear), or with a transitive object (sistere aliquem = to produce in court one in whose behalf the promise has been made). The present passive, sisti, sistendus, sistitur, = to appear or to be produced. The perfect act., stiti, stitisse, rarely the perfect passive, status sum, = to have appeared, I appeared. So in all periods of the language: cum autem in jus vocatus fuerit adversarius, ni eo die finitum fuerit negotium, vadimonium ei faciendum est, id est ut promittat se certo die sisti,Gai. 4, 184: fit ut Alfenus promittat, Naevio sisti Quinctium,
that Quinctius would be forthcoming upon Naevius's complaint
,Cic. Quint. 21, 67; cf. id. ib. 8, 30 (v. infra, B.): testificatur, P. Quinctium non stitisse, et se stitisse,id. ib. 6, 25: quin puellam sistendam promittat (= fore ut puella sistatur in judicio),Liv. 3, 45, 3: interrogavit quisquam, in quem diem locumque vadimonium promitti juberet, et Scipio manum ad ipsam oppidi, quod obsidebatur, arcem protendens: Perendie sese sistant illo in loco,Gell. 7, 1, 10: si quis quendam in judicio sisti promiserit, in eādem causā eum debet sistere,Dig. 2, 11, 11: si servum in eādem causā sistere promiserit, et liber factus sistatur, ... non recte sistitur,ib. 2, 9, 5: sed si statu liberum sisti promissum sit, in eādem causā sisti videtur, quamvis liber sistatur,ib. 2, 9, 6: cum quis in judicio sisti promiserit, neque adjecerit poenam si status non esset,ib. 2, 6, 4: si quis in judicio secundum suam promissionem non stitit,ib. 2, 11, 2, § 1; cf. ib. 2, 5, 1; 2, 8, 2; 2, 11, 2, § 3. Vadimonium sistere, to present one's self in court, thus keeping the solemn engagement (vadimonium) made to that effect; lit., to make the vadimonium stand, i. e. effective, opp. deserere vadimonium = not to appear, to forfeit the vadimonium. The phrase does not occur in the jurists of the Pandects, the institution of the vadimonium being abolished by Marcus Aurelius. It is found in the following three places only: quid si vadimonium capite obvoluto stitisses? Cat. ap. Gell. 2, 14, 1: ut Quinctium sisti Alfenus promitteret. Venit Romam Quinctius; vadimonium sistit,Cic. Quint. 8, 30: ut nullum illa stiterit vadimonium sine Attico,Nep. Att. 9; Gai. 4, 185; cf. diem sistere under status, P. a. infra.Transf., out of judicial usage, in gen., = to appear or present one's self, quasi ex vadimonio; constr. absol. or with dat. of the person entitled to demand the appearance: ubi tu es qui me vadatus's Veneriis vadimoniis? Sisto ego tibi me, et mihi contra itidem ted ut sistas suadeo (of a lover's appointment),Plaut. Curc. 1, 3, 5; so, tibi amatorem illum alacrem vadimonio sistam,

,App. M. 9, p. 227, 14: nam promisimus carnufici aut talentum magnum, aut hunc hodie sistere,Plaut. Rud. 3, 4, 73: vas factus est alter ejus sistendi, ut si ille non revertisset, moriendum esset sibi,Cic. Off. 3, 10, 45. Fana sistere, acc. to Festus anciently used, either = to place (secure and fix places for) temples in founding a city, or to place the couches in the lectisternia: sistere fana, cum in urbe condendā dicitur, significat loca in oppido futurorum fanorum constituere: quamquam Antistius Labeo, in commentario XV. juris pontificii ait fana sistere esse lectisternia certis locis et diebus habere,Fest. p. 267 Lind. To this usage Plaut. perh. alludes: apud illas aedis sistendae mihi sunt sycophantiae,
the place about that house I must make the scene of my tricks
,Plaut. Trin. 4, 2, 25. Sistere monumenta, etc., or sistere alone, to erect statues, etc. (= statuere; post-class. and rare; mostly in Tac.): ut apud Palatium effigies eorum sisteret,Tac. A. 15, 72: cum Augustus sibi templum sisti non prohibuisset,id. ib. 4 37: at Romae tropaea de Parthis arcusque sistebantur,id. ib. 15, 18: monuere ut ... templum iisdem vestigiis sisteretur,id. H. 4, 53: sistere monumenta,Aus. Ep. 24, 55: Ast ego te ... Carthaginis arce Marmoreis sistam templis (cf. ἱστάναι τινά), Sil. 8, 231; v. statuo. Sistere = to cause what is tottering or loose to stand firm, to support or fasten; and neutr., to stand firm. Causative (rare; perh. not in class. prose) = stabilire: sucus ... mobilis (dentes) sistit,Plin. 20, 3, 8, § 15; and trop.: hic (Marcellus) rem Romanam magno turbante tumultu Sistet (cf.: respublica stat; v. sto),Verg. A. 6, 858; cf.: non ita civitatem aegram esse, ut consuetis remediis sisti posset,Liv. 3, 20, 8 (where sisti may be impers.;v.infra, III. C.).Neutr., to stand firm, to last, = stare: nec mortale genus, nec divum corpora sancta Exiguom possent horai sistere tempus,Lucr. 1, 1016: qui rem publicam sistere negat posse, nisi ad equestrem ordinem judicia referantur, Cotta ap. Cic. Verr. 2, 3, 96, § 223.Neutr., to stand firm, to resist: nec quicquam Teucros Sustentare valet telis, aut sistere contra,Verg. A. 11, 873; so with dat. = resistere: donec Galba, inruenti turbae neque aetate neque corpore sistens, sella levaretur,Tac. H. 1, 35; cf. sisti = resistere, III. B. 1. f. infra. Sistere = to stand still, and to cause to stand still.Neutr. = stare (rare; in Varr., Tac., and the poets). To stand still: solstitium dictum est quod sol eo die sistere videatur,Varr. L. L. 5, p. 53 (Bip.): sistunt amnes,Verg. G. 1, 479: incurrit, errat, sistit,Sen. Herc. Oet. 248.To remain, stop: Siste! Quo praeceps ruis?Sen. Thyest. 77; id. Oedip. 1050: vis tu quidem istum intra locum sistere?

,Stat. S. 3, 4, 24. So, se sistere with ab, to desist from: non prius se ab effuso cursu sistunt,Liv. 6, 29, 3; hence, to arrest by wounding, i. e. to wound or kill: aliquem cuspide,Sil. 1, 382; 1, 163; so, cervum vulnere sistere,id. 2, 78.To stop a hostile attack of persons, to resist them, ward them off: ut non sisterent modo Sabinas legiones, sed in fugam averterent,Liv. 1, 37, 3: ibi integrae vires sistunt invehentem se jam Samnitem,id. 10, 14, 18: nec sisti vis hostium poterat,Curt. 5, 3, 11: nec sisti poterant scandentes,Tac.

,id. Ep. 2, 17, 17; (motus terrae) non ante quadraginta dies sistuntur, = desinunt,Plin. 2, 82, 84, § 198. Sistere with intra = to confine, keep within: transgresso jam Alpes Caecina, quem sisti intra Gallias posse speraverant,Tac. H. 2, 11: dum populatio lucem intra sisteretur,
provided the raids were confined to day-time
,id. A. 4, 48. Impers. and trop., to arrest or avoid an impending misfortune, or to stand, i. e. to endure; generally in the form sisti non potest (more rarely: sisti potest) = it cannot be endured, a disaster cannot be avoided or met (once in Plaut.; freq. in Liv.; sometimes in Tac.; cf., in gen., Brix ad Plaut. Trin. 720; Drak. ad Liv. 3, 16, 4; Weissenb. ad Liv. 2, 29, 8; Gronov. ad Liv. 4, 12, 6; Beneke ad Just. 11, 1, 6). Without a subject, res or a noun of general import being understood: quid ego nunc agam, nisi ut clipeum ad dorsum accommodem, etc.? Non sisti potest,
it is intolerable
,Plaut. Trin. 3, 2, 94: totam plebem aere alieno demersam esse, nec sisti posse nisi omnibus consulatur,Liv. 2, 29, 8: si domestica seditio adiciatur, sisti non posse,
the situation will be desperate
,id. 45, 19, 3: si quem similem priore anno dedissent, non potuisse sisti,id. 3, 9, 8: vixque concordiā sisti videbatur,
that the crisis could scarcely be met
,
even by harmonious action
,id. 3, 16, 4: qualicunque urbis statu, manente disciplinā militari sisti potuisse,
these evils were endurable
,id. 2, 44, 10: exercitum gravi morbo affectari, nec sisti potuisse ni, etc., it would have ended in disaster, if not, etc., id. 29, 10, 1: qui omnes populi si pariter deficiant, sisti nullo modo posse,Just. 11, 1, 6 Gronov. ad loc.; cf. Liv. 3, 20, 8 supra, II. A. 1. Rarely with a subject-clause understood: nec jam sisti poterat, and it was no longer tolerable, i. e. that Nero should disgrace himself, etc., Tac. A. 14, 14. Rarely with quin, to prevent etc. (pregn., implying also the stopping of something; cf. supra, III. B. 1.): neque sisti potuit quin et palatium et domus et cuncta circum haurirentur (igni),Tac. A. 15, 39. Hence, stătus, a, um, P. a., as attribute of nouns, occurs in several conventional phrases, as relics of archaic usage. Status (condictusve) dies cum hoste, in the XII. Tables, = a day of trial fixed by the judge or agreed upon with the adversary; esp., a peregrinus (= hostis),Cic. Off. 1, 12, 37. It presupposes a phrase, diem sistere, prob.=vadimonium sistere (v. supra, I. C. 2.). Such an appointment was an excuse from the most important public duties, even for soldiers from joining the army, Cinc. ap. Gell. 16, 4, 4. Hence, transf.: si status condictus cum hoste intercedit dies, tamen est eundum quo imperant,i. e.
under all circumstances we must go
