This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1896 Excerpt: ...en; Goetz em. The meaning is "look here," "see"; cp. Aul. 804; As. 428, 442, 871; Capt. 625, 1001; Cure. 121, 129, 195, 624; Most. i. 4, 20; iii. 2, 97, 118; iv. 3, 17; iv. 4, 8; Trin. 1069. In As. 428, Cure. 195, 624, it indicates the infliction of a blow. In the seven plays referred to here, including the Bacchides, I have found twenty-three instances of em, in one of which a blow appears to be indicated. In Most. 9 we have en where a blow has been given, but this particle is very rare in Plautus. In sixteen of the plays, excluding the Poen., Pers., Rud., and Truc., I have found thirty-two instances of em or hem with a demonstrative or emphatic word following, thirteen in questions, twelve with dat. sometimes accompanied by an accus., eight indicating a blow, four with an imper., three with accus., three where it is used absolutely, and one with vocat. I believe Plautus used both as demonstratives, and that they bear the same relation to each other as is and hie, of which they are old accuss. Even in the MS. B hem is the more frequent; and this is to be expected, for hie is more of a demons, than is, nor can I find any instances of its use as a mere exclamation of joy or sorrow; hence it appears to me equally reasonable to make hie, heii, his, or Mis, heeis conform to ii, eei, iis, eis, eeis, as to refuse to admit hem of the older MSS. Of the sixteen instances of hem, the reading of B, given above, there are five with a question, four with demons, or emphatic word following, three indicating the infliction of a blow, three with dat., one with imper. 207.
