[Invenire]; Reperire; Deprehendere; Nancisci; Adipisci; Consequi; Assequi. Invenire denotes, as a general term, to find; reperire and deprehendere suppose a previous concealment of the thing found, and an intention, and pains employed on the part of the finder; but the reperiens (from πεπαρεῖν) merely discovers what was concealed, and now lies before his eyes, like ἀνευρεῖν; the deprehendens, what desired to hide itself, or to escape, and now is in his power. Tac. Ann. i. 74. Perniciem aliis ac postremo sibi invenere: comp. with xiv. 3. Cædes quonam modo occultaretur nemo reperit. 2. Invenire, reperire, deprehendere, imply a concealed object, which is discovered; whereas nancisci, adipisci, assequi, and consequi, only a distant object, which is reached; the nanciscens (from ἐνεγκέσθαι) arrives at his object with or without trouble, sometimes even against his wish, as to light upon; the adipiscens (from potiri) only by exertion, as to achieve; the consequens arrives at the object of his wish with or without assistance; the assequens, at the object of his endeavors, by means of exertion. Suet. Tib. 10. Titus ad primam statim mansionem febrim nactus: comp. with Dom. 15. Nero in adipiscenda morte manu Epaphroditi adjutus est. Cic. Att. x. 12. Nactus Curionem omnia me consecutum putavi. Rosc. Com. 4. Ut neque nihil neque tantum quantum postulavimus consequamur. In Cic. Mil. 11. Nihil dico quid resp. consecuta sit, nihil quod vos, nihil quod omnes boni; namely, by the death of Clodius, to which certainly nobody but Milo had contributed; assecuta sit could not be substituted; and, on the other hand, in Sen. Brev. 17. Operose assequuntur quæ volunt, anxii tenent quæ assecuti sunt; the word consequuntur would be too weak. Cic. Fam. i. 7, 10. Omnia quæ ne per populum quidem sine seditione assequi arbitrabantur, per senatum consecuti sunt. (iii. 142.)
