"because of this," viz., because this man is Haman.
l. 1082: _Les Juifs . . . en poussèrent des cris_, i.e. on account of
this promise of mildness given by the king.
_D_. In a number of expressions where, from constant use, it has
become, so to speak, stereotyped:
E.g., l. 1144: _J'en atteste_ = "I call to witness [for the truth of
this] . . ."
l. 1162: _C'en est fait_ = "It is all over [with my pride]." Cf. l.
164, where _c'en est fait d'Israël_ would be equally correct.
l. 820: _Il n'en est pas ainsi de_ = "such is not the case with."
_E_. In a few semi-idiomatic expressions, with a generalizing force
due to the broadening of the meaning "on account of this," "in this
matter," into that of "in any matter."
Eg., l. 375: _on s'en peut reposer sur ma foi_ = "I am ever to be
trusted."
Cf. _Si vous m'en croyez_ = "If you will be guided by me."
NOTE. This generalization mainly results in a figurative force; E.g.,
_En venir à_ = "to be reduced to;" _en passer par là_ = "to have to
submit to that."
