   komme, Goth. giman, L. venire (gvenire), Gr. ? to go, Skr.
   gam. [root]23. Cf. {Base}, n., {Convene}, {Adventure}.]
   1. To move hitherward; to draw near; to approach the speaker,

   Note: Am come, is come, etc., are frequently used instead of
         have come, has come, etc., esp. in poetry. The verb to
         be gives a clearer adjectival significance to the
         participle as expressing a state or condition of the
         subject, while the auxiliary have expresses simply the
         completion of the action signified by the verb.

               Think not that I am come to destroy. --Matt. v.
                                                  17.

               year.                              --Bryant.

   Note: Come may properly be used (instead of go) in speaking
         of a movement hence, or away, when there is reference
         to an approach to the person addressed; as, I shall
         come home next week; he will come to your house to-day.
         It is used with other verbs almost as an auxiliary,
         indicative of approach to the action or state expressed
         by the verb; as, how came you to do it? Come is used
         colloquially, with reference to a definite future time
         approaching, without an auxiliary; as, it will be two
         years, come next Christmas; i. e., when Christmas shall
         come.

               They were cried In meeting, come next Sunday.
                                                  --Lowell.
         Come, in the imperative, is used to excite attention,
         or to invite to motion or joint action; come, let us
         go. ``This is the heir; come, let us kill him.''
         --Matt. xxi. 38. When repeated, it sometimes expresses
         haste, or impatience, and sometimes rebuke. ``Come,
         come, no time for lamentation now.'' --Milton.

                are come about, and won to the true side. --B.
