_178._ We learned in Sec. 50 that one of the three relations covered by
the ablative case is expressed in English by the preposition _from._
This is sometimes called the _separative ablative_, and it has a number
of special uses. You have already grown familiar with the first
mentioned below.

_179._ RULE. Ablative of the Place From. _The place from which is
expressed by the ablative with the prepositions /a:\ or /ab\, /de:\,
/e:\ or /ex\._

Agricolae ex agris veniunt, _the farmers come from the fields_

_a._ /a:\ or /ab\ denotes _from near_ a place; /e:\ or /ex\, _out
from_ it; and /de\, _down from_ it. This may be represented
graphically as follows:

_________
| |
/a:\ or /ab\ | | /e:\ or /ex\
/______________| ___________________\
\ | Place | /
|_________|
|
| /de\

_180._ RULE. Ablative of Separation. _Words expressing separation or
deprivation require an ablative to complete their meaning._

_a._ If the separation is _actual_ and _literal_ of one material
thing from another, the preposition /a:\ or /ab\, /e:\ or /ex\, or
/de\ is generally used. If no actual motion takes place of one thing
from another, no preposition is necessary.

(a) Perseus terram a monstris liberat
_Perseus frees the land from monsters_
(literal separation--actual motion is expressed)
(b) Perseus terram tristitia liberat
_Perseus frees the land from sorrow_
(figurative separation--no actual motion is expressed)

_181._ RULE. Ablative of the Personal Agent. _The word expressing the
person from whom an action starts, when not the subject, is put in the
ablative with the preposition /a:\ or /ab\._

_a._ In
