We wonder that any one should have the _face_ to say so.
Sui and suus are reciprocal pronouns, that is, they have always relation
to that which went before, and was most to be noted in the sentence,
as--
Jonathanus nimium admiratur se:
Jonathan admires himself too much.
Parcit erroribus suis, He spares his own errors.
Magnoperè Jonathanus rogat ne se derideas, Jonathan earnestly begs
that you would not laugh at him.
If you _do_, take care that he does not _blow you up_ one of these fine
days.
These demonstrative pronouns, hic, iste, and ille are thus
distinguished: hic points out the nearest to me; iste him who is by you;
ille him who is at a distance from both of us.
In making _game_ of the Syntax, we regard them as _pointers_.
When hic and ille are referred to two things or persons going before,
hic generally relates to the latter, ille to the former, as
Richardus Thomasque suum de more bibebant,
Ebrius hic vappis, ebrius ille mero:
Both Dick and Tom caroused away like swine,
Tom drunk with swipes, and Dicky drunk with wine.
