Suffolk, March 4.

_Apposition._--Can any one give me a little information upon the

following passage?--

"Quin age, te incolumi potius (potes omnia quando,

Nec tibi nequiequam pater est qui sidera torquet)

Perficias quodcunque tibi nunc instat agendum."

_Hieronym. Vid. Christ._ lib. i. 67.

I want to know in what case _te incolumi_ is; and, if in the ablative

absolute, can any one bring a parallel construction from the writers

of the Augustan age, where the law of _apposition_ appears to be so

far violated?
