When they anounce a new pope the "Habemus Papam" text says "eminentissimum ad reverendissimum dominum, dominum
Why is it? Why isn't "eminentissimus ac reverendissimus dominus ?

          I would say it's the same reason you see papam instead of papa above. That is, the whole thing is the direct object of habēmus.



          In other words, the meaning is "we have a Pope, [we have a] most eminent and reverend…" and so on.
