[[sine]] indicates [[defect]] in [[reality]]. In Plaut. and Ter. [[only]] in conditional clauses: [[absque]] me, te, eo, etc., esset = [[nisi]] or si ego, tu, is, etc.. non fuissem; [[without]] me, i. e. [[without]] my [[agency]], if it had not been for me: nam [[hercle]] [[absque]] me foret et meo praesidio, hic faceret te prostibilem, if I had not stood by [[you]], Plaut. Pers. 5, 2, 56; cf. id. Trin. 5, 2, 3: nam [[absque]] ted esset, [[numquam]] [[hodie]] ad solem occasum viverem, if [[you]] had not aided me, etc., id. Men. 5, 7, 33; cf. id. Bacch. 3, 3, 8; id. Trin. 4, 1, 13: [[absque]] eo esset, recte ego mihi vidissem, Ter. Phorm. 1, 4, 11. Somewhat [[different]] is, [[quam]] [[fortunatus]] ceteris [[sum]] rebus, [[absque]] una hac foret, if it were not for this one [[thing]], id.

[[formula]]: [[absque]] sententiā, [[without]] [[judgment]], [[contrary]] to it: nullam a me epistulam ad te [[sino]] [[absque]] argumento ac sententiā pervenire, Cic. Att. 1, 19, 1; cf.: an [[etiamsi]] nullā ratione [[ductus]] est, impetu [[raptus]] [[sit]] et [[absque]] sententiā? Quint. 7, 2, 44.<br /><b>II</b> Post-[[class]].<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<b>A</b> Likewise in jurid. lang., i. q. [[sine]], [[without]]: decerni [[absque]] libelli documento, Cod.

[[praeter]], [[except]]: [[apud]] Aeschylum eundem esse [[versum]] [[absque]] paucis syllabis, Gell. 13, 18 (19), 4; so, [[absque]] paucis, Symm. Ep. 2, 36: [[absque]] his, Cod.
