E. TILTON & CO. 1858. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1858, BY JOSIAH WlLLARD GlBBS, in the Clerk/s office, of the District Court of Connecticut. PRINTED BY E. HAYES, NEW HAVEN, CONN. PREFACE. THE object of the Latin Analyst, is the analysis of the Latin sen- tence, the analysis of the Latin sentence being substantially the analy- sis of a sentence in Greek, English, or any other language. As will be seen by the Table of Contents, the Latin Analyst con- sists mainly of select Latin sentences, classified and arranged in about sixty sections. The principles of the work are as follows : 1. Every passage is a complete proposition. A proposition is the unit of language. Nothing short of a proposition can enter directly into con- tinuous discourse. Mere phrases, or groups of words, by themselves, give a contorted view of language, and are not used as examples by the later grammarians. It is only in their relation to the proposition that such phrases or groups of words are a proper object of study. 2. These sentences are arranged on the progressive principle, i. e., they proceed from the more simple to the more complicated forms. This is the principle which has made the Ollendorffian method so generally- popular in the study of modern languages. 3. The propositions however, are here arranged on philosophical prin- ciples, i. e., in the order of their natural development. It is the order substantially followed by the modern school of philosophic grammarians. 4. The whole is thought to form a more complete series of distinct propositions, than has yet been made by our grammarians for the Latin language. 5. In the transition from one section to another, or from one set of propositions to another, the distinguishing feature of the new section is brought under consideration and explained as far as may be. 6. In this way, it is believed, the strictly syntactical forms of the lan- guage are exhausted, and each of them in succession brought under review. IV PREFACE. The short explanations, accompanying each section, are placed here in order to force themselves on the attention of the pupil. The instruc- tor or pupil who wishes further explanation, will find full references to a former treatise, which gives in a condensed form the philological prin- ciples of the author. But should the pupil merely study the Latin sentences in this order, without any further aid or suggestion from his teacher, he may yet de- rive a substantial advantage from the mere arrangement, as exhibiting language in its natural development. Notwithstanding the air of novelty which this work may present at first sight, it is believed that the young pupil will easily fall into the system here suggested, and that teachers who have been accustomed to the old method, will soon accommodate themselves to the new, and feel themselves amply rewarded. The arrangement and consecution here adopted, if accordant with truth and the reality of things, furnishes a basis for the method of gram- mar, which is now the great problem in instruction in language. The sentences have been selected as far as could be done, so as to convey useful moral sentiments. But the more important consideration to be here stated, is the hope that grammar taught in this way may be invested with fresh inter- est, and that the pupil may imbibe a living sense of the power of language. The author may not, in every case, have carried out his theoretic principles. But special reasons have led him to publish without further delay. The Latin Analyst contains no references to existing Latin Gram- mars. It will neither interfere with any of them, nor in any way super- sede their use. It may be used with one Latin Grammar as well as another. The Philological Studies, to which references are made in the An- alyst, occupies a field somewhat different from common grammars. It concerns itself with the logic or philosophy of language. It brings to- gether grammatical distinctions, which are either omitted in our common grammars or else imperfectly discussed. Being derived from the princi- ples of general philology as concerned with the Indo-European lan- guages, they will, it is thought, stand the test of thorough investigation. PREFACE. V Among the more important points here brought into notice, we may mention the distinction of notional words and form-words, see Philologi- cal Studies, p. 48, the three syntactical combinations, the predicative, the attributive, and the objective, see p. 39, the factitive relation, see p. 69, the distinction of the causal relation into the real, the moral, and the logi- cal, see p. 126, the distinction of subordinate and co-ordinate compound propositions, see p. 1 1 5, the classification of subordinate propositions, see p. 116, the different forms of co-ordination, see p. 137, the nature of a period, as an artistic product, see p. 144. The peculiar principles of the Philological Studies, are found in the grammatical works of Becker, Kiihner, Kriiger, Weissenborn, and many other German writers. They have been applied by the Germans to the Meso -Gothic and French languages. Neither is this form of philology entirely new, even on English soil. Dr. J. D. Morell, well known for his philosophical writings, and one of Queen Victoria's Inspectors of Schools, has recommended the principles of Becker to the pupils of British schools. Prof. Fowler, of Amherst in his English Grammar, has several chapters based on Becker. In Yale College, also, these views have received some attention among the Aca- demical Professors. The Germans of Cincinnati have republished in that city, for the benefit of their youth, a German grammar on the Beckerian plan. And many individuals in all parts of our country are desirous to understand the subject more perfectly. Although these principles may not have been adopted very extensively in form, yet it is evident to any one acquainted with the state of things here, and abroad, that they are exerting a very great indirect influence, and might exert a still greater one, if they were presented to the Ameri- can student in their natural connection. The author hopes for a fair trial of his experiment to bring before young pupils materials of thought and study which have heretofore been regarded by many as above their capacity. J. W. G.

THE imperfect proposition exhibits language in its first or earliest effort. It consists of a predication only, having no logical subject conceived of or expressed. It is still employed to describe the operations of nature and the state of the weather. The imperfect proposition develops the verb, (from Lat. verbum, ' the word,' because of its importance in a sentence,) or that part of speech which predicates or affirms action. a Pluit. c Tonat. e Fulminat. b Ningit. d Lucet. f Yesperascit. Each of these words is composed of the crude form of the verb, and t or it, the termination of the third person singular, which, however, has here lost its grammatical significance. These examples have been selected so as to exhibit the verb in the different stages of its historical development. Thus The crude form plu is the simple */plu. The crude form ning is the simple */ nig, with an epet* thetic n. The crude form tona is the simple %/ ton, with the verbal formative a. The crude form luce is the simple V luc, with the verbal formative e. The crude form fulmina is a denominative from the noun fulmen, for fulgimen, itself a derivative from */ fulg. The crude form vesperasc is an inchoative from the noun vespera, itself probably a derivative from a verbal root. 1 5s SELECT SENTENCES. 2. Simple or Naked Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 23, 27, 37, 40, 43. THE perfect proposition contains a subject as well as a predi- cate. The subject or cause evolves itself, as it were, from the predicate or effect, in accordance with the mental law that our knowledge of a substance is derived from an observance of its attributes. This proposition develops the substantive, (from Lat. sub- stantia, ' substance,') or that part of speech which denotes a being, substance, or essence. The verb and the substantive are the two most important parts of speech. The action or activity and the substance or essence, which they denote, con- stitute the highest antithesis in nature. In the perfect proposition, the predicative relation, or the relation of the verb to its subject, is exhibited in its perfection. This is the most important of the three syntactical relations. The verb and its subject together constitute the predicative combination. a Rex regit. g Torrens siccatur. b Sonus son at. h Fabula narratur. c Toga tegit. i Sol lucet. d Flumen fluit. j Nox sequitur. e Pax redit. k Hostes pugnant. f Nubes fugiunt. 1 Mare tumet. Each substantive here is composed of the crude form and the nominative termination expressed or implied. In examples a-d, the root of the substantive is the same as that of the accompanying verb. Reg, the crude form of rex, is simply / reg. Sono, the crude form of sonus, is derived from x/ son, by adding the formative vowel o. Toga, the crude form of toga, is derived from \f teg, by in- ternal inflection of vowel, and by adding the formative vowel a. Flumen, the crude form of flumen, is derived from \/ flu, by adding the suffix men. In examples e h, the root of the substantive differs from that of the accompanying verb. SELECT SENTENCES. 3 Pac, the crude form of pax, is simply Nube, the crude form of nubes, is derived from x/ nub, by adding the formative vowel e passing into i. Torrent, the crude form of torrens, is derived from */ torr for tors, by adding the participial termination ent. Fabula, the crude form of fabula, is derived from +/fa. In examples i 1, the substantive is derived from a verbal root, now not found in Latin. 3. Proposition with Copula and Predicate Adjective. See Philol. Stud. pp. 23, 27, 37, 38, 40, 43. IN this proposition the predicate is evolved from the predi- cation, by a curious and important process in language, and is expressed separately. This predicate is a sort of imperfect verb, and joined with the substantive verb to be, is adapted to express the idea of the verb from which it is derived with more force and emphasis. It is called the adjective, (from Lat. adjectus, < added,' because it may be added directly to a substantive,) or that part of speech which expresses an attri- bute or quality of the substantive. The copula too, or substantive verb so called, is a sort of imperfect verb, as it expresses the predication, and not the thing predicated. It is merely a form-word. a Deus est vivus. d Dies est calidus. b Vinum est rubrum. e Sol est lucidus. c Lilia sunt alba. f Mare est tumidum. Here Deus est vivus is evolved from Deus vivit ; Vinum est rubrum from vinum rubet ; Lilia sunt alba from lilia albent ; Dies est calidus from dies calet ; Sol est lucidus from sol lucet ; Mare est tumidum from mare tumet. The crude forms of the substantives are deo, vino, lilio, die, sol, mare. The crude form of the verb is es from */es. The crude forms of the adjectives are vivo from +/ viv, rubero from /rub, albo from V alb, calido from +/cal, lucido from \/ luc, tumido from \/ turn. SELECTSENTENCES. 4. Proposition with Copula and Predicate Substantive. See Philol. Stud. pp. 23, 28, 40, 43. comp. 60. THE noun here is an attributive noun, and answers nearly the same purpose as an adjective. a Terra est globus. f Alexander erat victor. b Luna est satelles. g Cicero erat orator. o c Leo est animal. h Numa erat rex. d Verbena est venenum. i Carolus est medicus. e Homerus erat poeta. j Aurum est metallum. The crude forms of the ten subjects are terra, luna, leon, verbena, Homer o, Alexander o, Ciceron, Numa, Carolo, auro. The crude forms of the ten predicates are globo, satellit, animali, veneno, poeta, victor, orator, reg, medico, metallo. 5. Proposition with Preposition and Substantive as a Predicate. See Philol. Stud. pp. 23, 28. THIS form of the predicate is to be regarded as abnormal. a Erat ad Erythraeum mare. b Totus fere senatus a partibus Pompeii erat. c In Helvetia montes sunt. d Deus est in coelo. e Themistocles erat in summis viris. f Tones inter auxilia Persarum erant. g Est extra noxiam. h Per apertas valvas est introitus in urbem. i Quae contra Brundusium est. j Necesitas ante rationem est. k Post me erat Aegina. 1 Eo ipso tempore trans mare ful SELECT SENTENCES. 6. Proposition with Predicate Adverb or Substantive in Oblique Case. See Philol. Stud. pp. 23, 28. THIS form of the predicate also is to be regarded as ab- normal. a Sum tuto. b Est recte. c Parentes nostri ibi non fuerunt. d Quid satis est? e Est magnae virtutis. f Semper tranquilli animi ero. g Est magno honore. h Erat duobis sestertii's. 7. Proposition with Attributive Adjective. See Philol. Stud. p. 24, 28, 40, 44. IF we compare 'the strong band' with 'the band is strong,' we shall find that in the former phrase the adjective strong expresses a distinct syntactical relation from what it does in the latter. It is called the attributive relation. The object of the attribute, like that of the predicate, is to limit more exactly or specify more minutely the force of the substantive to which it relates, and thus reduce the more gen- eral to the more special. But it presupposes a judgment, does not express one. It expresses a predicate, not as a full thought or predication, but in the form of an idea or notion. The substantive and attribute are not first joined at the mo- ment of speaking, but the attributive combination makes use of a past or former predication. The adjective is the primary form of the attributive combi- nation, and is properly employed to reduce the genus to the species. 1* SELECT SENTENCES. a Rosa pulcherrima arescet. b Probus vir est rarus. c Populus Romanus victor fuit. d Bellum intestinum geritur. e Puer ingenuus puellam pulchram amavit. f Bellum atrocissimum gestum fuit. g Columna aurea solida sacrata est. li Amicus certus in re incerta cernitur. i Verae amicitiae aeternae sunt. 8. Proposition with Attributive Substantive in Apposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 28, 40, 44, 60. THE attributive substantive in apposition is naturally adapted to express identity, and that of one individual to another. Hence it serves not to reduce the genus to the species, but the species to the individual. When it expresses an antithesis, it expresses the antithesis of the individual. a Xanthippe, Socratis uxor, admodum morosa fuit. b Alexander,, Macedoniae rex, totam Asiam devicit. e Apud Herodotum, patrem historiae, sunt innumerabiles fabulae. d Alba Longa ab Ascanio, Aeneae filio, condita est. e Datum est Neptuno, alteri Jo vis fratri, maritiinum omne regnurn. 9. Proposition with Attributive Genitive. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 28, 40, 44, 64. THE genitive case, being in its origin the adnominal case, or case joined to the noun, is adapted in its own nature to modify or limit the force of the noun to which it is joined. It is properly adapted to reduce the species to the individual. Examples a e exhibit the genitive of the agent ; examples f i, the genitive of possession ; examples j 1, the genitive of kindred; example in, the genitive of the object.

Proposition with Attributive Preposition and Substantive. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 29, 45, 66. BESIDES the attributive adjective, the attributive noun in apposition, and the attributive genitive, there is another form of the attribute, namely, a preposition and complement, or a substantive with a preposition ; as, the merchant in London. The substantive and preposition, like the other attributives, expresses a predicate, (comp. the merchant dwelt in London,) not as a full thought or predication, but in the form of an idea or notion. Like the other attributives it is intended also to limit more exactly, or specify more minutely, the force of the substantive to which it relates, and thus to reduce the more general to the more special. This form of the attributive, as it involves a preposition, implies an adjective or participle understood, and thereby denotes an activity ; as, i a crown (made) of gold/ ' the letter (sent) to my father,' ' the bride (adorned) with a crown,' * the wolf (described) in the fable/ etc. a Laetitia gestiens est sine ratione animi elatio* b Cum dignitate otium dulce est. c Ex Arcadia hospes adest. 8 SELECT SENTENCES. d Pocula ex auro ei data sunt. e Omnis metus a vi atque ira deorum sublatus est. f Yoluntas totius provinciae erga Caesarem manifesta fuit. g Ista mihi fuit perjucunda a proposita oratione digressio. 11. Proposition with Various Attributes. See Philol. Stud. p. 29. IN examples a c, the attributive adjective is repeated. In example d, the attributive substantive in apposition is repeated. In example e, the attributive genitive is repeated. In example f, three forms of the attribute occur. a Naves longas triginta refecit. b Columna solida aurea erecta est. c Fecundi Campani agri bene culti sunt. d Tito, fratri tuo, optirno viro, librum dedi. e Dies annorum peregrinationis meae sunt multi. f Homo grandaevus ex Italia, Caii pater, nuper mortuus est Alexandriae. 12. Proposition ivith Accusative Object. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 29, 107, 108, 242. A. MANY verbs, in order to complete the idea which they predi- cate, require an accusative of the passive or suffering object. This form of proposition naturally exhibits the antithesis of person and thing, which is so important in grammar. For the subject is conceived of as a personal agent, and the object, whether a person or thing, is conceived of as passive or inert. This form of proposition also develops, and that in its most simple form, the objective relation, one of the three syntactical relations. There are three varieties of the accusative object in the active voice of verbs. SELECT SENTENCES. 9 1. When the object exists independent of the predicated action ; as in a 1. 2. When the object comes into existence along with the pred- icated action, and continues to exist afterwards ; as in m o. 3. When the object has only a passing existence coincident with the predicated action ; as in p r. Here belong verbs joined with their cognate nouns. There is also the passive voice, so called, of verbs, in which the passive object is made the subject of the verb ; as in s u. a Teneo librum. b Caesar vicit Pompeium. c Labor vincit omnia. d Tempus omnia revelabit. e Amor fiduciam nutrit. f Necessitas non habet legem. g Lumen talpa non desiderat. h Fortes viros fortuna adjuvat. i Livius res Romanas egregie scripsit. j Felix semper multos amicos habebit. k Mali sodales bonos mores corrumpunt. 1 Omne fere genus bestiarum Aegyptii consecraverunt. m Frater epistolam scripsit. n Facit temperantia bonam valetudinem. o Quandoque parva scintilla incendium ingens exsuscitat. p Mirum somniavi somnium. q Deus vivit beatam vitam. r Tu abi viam tuam. s Liber a me tenetur. t Pompeius a Caesare victus est. u Omnia a labore vincuntur. B. Many Latin verbs, as fado, habeo, scribo, teneo, vinco, etc. govern an accusative, in their own right, as originally transi- tive verbs. See examples above. Some verbs govern only an accusative of the cognate noun, or at least of a noun of cognate signification. See examples p r above. 10 SELECT SENTENCES. Some verbs govern an accusative, by deviating slightly from their physical meaning as intransitives ; as in v, w. Some verbs govern an accusative, by adopting a decidedly tropical or figurative meaning ; as in x, y. Some verbs govern an accusative, by virtue of the preposi- tions circum, per, praeter, subter, super, trans, with which they are compounded ; as in z ee. Some transitive verbs govern a second or indirect object ; as in ff hh. Note. Sometimes the Latin and English construction differ ; particularly if the verb is expressed in English by an adjective and copula ; as i ignorare jus/ to be ignorant of law ; ' tacere alios,' to be silent of other persons. v Cadus redolet vinum. w Nee vox hominem sonat. x Sanguinem nostrum sitiebat. y Catilina scelus anhelat. z Clamor hostes circumsonat. aa Amplissimos honores percucurrit. bb Hasta medias praetervolat auras. cc Fluctus Sicanos subterlabitur. dd Ille demum necessitates supergressus est. ee Domitii filius transiit Formias. ff Fortuna victos quoque belli artem docet. 2 Non celavi te sermonem hominum. OO hh Latinae legiones longa societate militiam Romanam sunt edoctae. 13. Proposition with Dative Object. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 29, 30, 107, 108, 242. MANY verbs, both transitive and intransitive, in order to complete the idea which they predicate, require a dative of a personal object sympathizing with the subject. So some ob- jective adjectives, in order to develop their full meaning. The dative as compared with the accusative has been called the remoter object. It is usually expressed in English by to or for. SELECT SENTENCES. 11 Tliis dative after verbs is sometimes found without an accus- ative, as in a h ; and sometimes along with an accusative, as in i m. It is found after adjectives, as in n r. This dative is sometimes found after simple adjectives and verbs, and sometimes after compound adjectives and verbs, as in b, c, d, g, k, p, q. Dativus commodi sive incommodi is the name given to the dative, in such examples, as s ; dativus ethicus, the name given to the dative in such examples, as t. Note. The construction in Latin and English often differs, owing to a difference in the usage of words ; as, ' probare alicui sententiam suain,' to make his opinion agreeable to some one ; not to prove his opinion to some one ; ' civitatem alicui dare,' i to present some one with the freedom of the city? a Venti nocent fructibus. b Magistratibus cives obediunt. c Probus invidet nemini. d Yulpes gallinis insidiatur. e Voluptas blanditur sensibus. f Mundus Deo paret. g Vir fortis fortunae non succumbet. h Ingratus unus omnibus miseris nocet. i Pater librum mihi dedit. j Solon leges Atheniensibus scripsit. k Exercitum collegae tradidit. 1 Arma fecit Yulcanus Achilli et Aeneae. m Veteres Germani Diis captivos mactabant homines. n Deo probitas grata est. o Morti simillimus est somnus. p Omni aetati mors est communis. q Deo nihil obscurum est. r Patriae solum omnibus carum est. s Homo non sibi soli natus est. t Quid mihi Celsus agit ? 12 SELECT SENTENCES. 14. Proposition ivith Genitive Object. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 30, 107, 108, 242. MANY verbs, both transitive and intransitive, in order to complete the idea which they predicate, require a genitive object, i. e. a real object, also acting on the subject, and call- ing out his activity. So some objective adjectives, in order to develop their full meaning. This object is expressed in English by means of the prepo- sitions of or from, (the usual representatives of the ancient genitive) ; also by about , after, at, before, for, in, on, over, to, upon, with. The genitive object in Latin exhibits itself in the genitive case, so called, but more fully in the ablative. This genitive object involves the local direction whence. The varieties of the genitive object are as follows : 1. The most simple, but rather uncommon, form of the genitive object is that of the place departed from, whenever it denotes a complementary, and not merely a supplementary object ; as in a, b. 2. Kindred to this is the idea of separation, involved in verbs of depriving, loosing, protecting ; as in c e. 3. The object after verbs and adjectives, denoting abund- ance, enjoyment, or deficiency ; as in f k. 4. The second object after verbs of clothing and adorning ; as in 1. 5. Adventitious complements after verbs and adjectives, viz. the part affected, the price ; as in m, n. 6. The object after verbs of remembering and forgetting, of compassion, shame, concern, and weariness ; . as in o s. 7. The object after adjectives of worthiness and unworthi- ness ; as in t, u. a Yenio Athenis. b Demaratus Tarquinios Corintho fugit. c Eum vita privavit. d Solvite corda metu. e Liberavit eum culpa or culpae. f Villa abundat agnis. g Omnium rerurn cognitione fruiti sumus.

Proposition with Factitive Object. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 30, 69 ff. 242. MANY verbs, in order to complete the idea which they predi- cate, require, besides the simple passive object or accusative of the thing, another object or accusative of the effect. So some objective adjectives, in order to develop their full meaning. This is called the factitive object. The Latin verbs concerned in the factitive relation are such as facio, efficio, etc. voco, nomino, saluto, etc. habeo, etc. which are construed with the nominative case in the passive voice, and doceo, edoceo, celo, etc. posco, rogo, etc. interrogo, etc. which are construed with the accusative in the passive. Thus ' Cicero consul factus est ;' ' omnes rectae animi affec- tiones virtutes appellantur ;' i sapientes beati habentur ;' 4 Lat- inae legiones longa societate militiam Romanam sunt edoctae ;' 4 M. Porcius Cato rogatus est sententiam? The construction of the accusative with the passive voice is to be explained thus : * posco te pecuniamj i. e. i jubeo te pecu- niam dare,' I make you give money ; ' posceris pecuniamj i. e.

The real factitive is when the effect or result of the action of the verb or adjective on the immediate object is a real or physical one. It may be either that into which something is made ; as, ' he converted the water into ice ;' 4 they appointed him dictator ;' or what is in any way effected ; as, i he serves to them for a warning ;' * it turns out to his praise? It is used after verbs which signify to make, create, appoint, choose, become, continue, remain, etc. a Certiorem me sui consilii fecit. b Mesopotamiam fertilem efficit Euphrates. c Avaritia homines caecos reddit. d Populus Romanus Numam regem creavit. e Romulus urbem Romam vocavit. f Cicero librum quendam Laelium inscripsit. g Summum consilium reipublicae appellarunt senatum. h Cato Yalerium Flaccum in consulatu collegam habuit. i Appius Claudius libertinorum filios senatores legit, j Tiberius Druso Sejanum dedit adjutorem. k Ciceronem una voce universus populus Romanus con- snlem declaravit. 1 Magno malo est hominibus avaritia. m Id tibi est dedecori. n Parvuli surculi paulatim arbores fient. o Caesar consul factus est. p oSTuma creatus est rex. B. The Moral Factitive. The moral factitive expresses not a real or physical effect or result of the action of the verb or adjective on its immediate object, but a willed or desired effect, i. e. an effect dependent on moral freedom ; as, ' he pants after freedom ;' * he advised them to peace ? 'he prepared himself for the contest? 'he is SELECT SENTENCES. 15 resolved on the deed* It is used after verbs which signify to wish, desire ; to ask, beg ; to hope, expect ; to advise, counsel ; to strive, endeavor ; etc. q Rogo te nummos. r Achaei regem auxilia orabant. s Posco te pecuniain. t Caesar frumentum Aeduos flagitavit. u Pusionem quendam interrogabat Socrates quaedam geo- metrica. v Marcus Porcius Cato rogatus est sententiam. C. The Logical Factitive. The logical factitive expresses not a real or physical effect or result of the action of the verb or adjective on its imme- diate object, but an intellectual, i. e. an adjudged or inferred effect ; as, * he thinks himself a gentleman ;' ' I took him for his brother ;' ' they regard him as a liar? It is used after verbs which either denote a judgment, as to judge, hold, think, consider, regard, count, etc. or the declaration of a judgment, as to declare, acknowledge, pretend, represent, etc. w Te judicem aequum judico. x Senatus Antonium hostem judicavit. y Irani bene Ennius initium dixit insaniae. z Solem Persae Deum esse credunt. aa Praesta te virum. bb Cognosces me tuae dignitatis fautorem. cc Aristides habitus est justissimus. dd Sapientes beati habentur. ee Non omnis error stultitia est dicenda. 16. Proposition with Object of Place. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 30, 38, 76 ff, 107, 109, 242. ANY verb or adjective, whether subjective or objective, admits an object of locality ; as, l the ball rolls on the ground / 4 he was studious at school? 16 SELECT SENTENCES. The place and direction of an activity have reference either to the place of the speaker himself, or else to the place of some other person or thing. A. Object of Place in reference to the Speaker. The place and direction of the activity in reference to the place of the speaker, is expressed by adverbial form-words of place ; as in a h. These adverbial form-words develop themselves in pairs ; as, hie and ibi, in a, b ; super and subter, in c, d ; ante and post, in e, f ; intra and extra, in g ; citro and ultro, in h. a Hie tui omnes valent. b Ibi quievi in navi noctem perpetem. c Renes tunicis super conteguntur. d Subter mediam fere regionem sol obtinet. e Pallida Tisiphone morbos agit ante metumque. f Pone subit conjux. g Pars, quae intra, longior esse debet, quam quae extra. h Pisciculi ultro citro commeant. B. Object of Place in reference to some other Person or Thing. The place and direction of the activity in reference to some other person or thing than the speaker is expressed sometimes by case-endings, and more frequently by prepositions ; as in i qq. Here, as in the supplementary objects generally, instead of the case-ending of the substantive, the relation of the sub- stantive to the predicate may be expressed by a separate word. This word is called the preposition, (from Lat. praepositio, * a placing before,' because placed before the substantive,) or that part of speech which expresses the relation between the verb or adjective and its object. The prepositions appear here in their primary or local sense, and arrange themselves, for the most part, beautifully in anti- thetic pairs. Motion to a place, in a linear direction, the most simple of all the local relations, is expressed by the preposition ad. The resultant state is expressed by ad or apud. See in i k. SELECT SENTENCES. 17 Motion from a place, in the linear direction, the antithetic local relation, is expressed by the preposition ab. The result- ant state is expressed by procul a. See in 1 n. Motion into a place or portion of space, as containing the three dimensions, is expressed by the preposition in with an accusative. The resultant state, i. e. rest in a place, is ex- pressed by in with an ablative ; also by intra. See in o q. Motion out of a place or portion of space, as containing the three dimensions, the antithetic relation to the preceding, is expressed by the preposition ex. The resultant state is ex- pressed by extra. See in r, s. The relative local relation over and above, whether of motion or rest in a place, is expressed by the prepositions super and supra. See in t v. The antithetic relative local relation, under and beneath, whether of motion or rest in a place, is expressed by the prepositions, sub, subter, and infra. See in w y. The relative local relation before is expressed by the prepo- sition ante. See in z. The antithetic relative local relation, after and behind, is expressed by the prepositions pone and post. See in aa, bb. The relative local relation, on this side of, is expressed by the prepositions cis and citra. See in cc, dd. The antithetic local relation, on the other side of, is expressed by the preposition ultra. See in ee.

A. Proposition with Object of Time. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 30, 107, 109, 242. comp. 122, 125. ANY verb or adjective, whether subjective or objective, ad- mits an object of time ; as, 'he died in the winter;' 4 he was indolent in summer.' The time of an activity has reference either to the present of the speaker, or else to the time of some other activity or action. SELECT SENTENCES. 19 1. The time of an activity in reference to the speaker is expressed by adverbial form-words of time, as olim, nuper, jam, nunc, mox, fieri, kodie, eras. See in a h. 2. The time of an activity in reference to some other ac- tivity is variously expressed and has several varieties : (1.) The point of time in reference to the time spoken of, by adverbs ; as, turn, tune ; quando, ecquando ; quum, cum ; unquam, nunquam / aliquando; quandocunque. See in i k. (2.) The linear extension of time, expressed by adverbs, as inde, donee, dum, interea, or by prepositions before abstract or other nouns of time, as ab, ad, ante, ex, in, intra, post. See in 1 s. (3.) Repetition or number of times, expressed by adverbs ; as, quoties, toties, saepe, raro, interdum, semel, iterum, Us, ter, quater, etc. See in t, u. (4.) Absolute or indefinite time, expressed by notional ad- verbs ; as, inter diu, noctu. This is an object of kind and not of the individual. See in v, w. The time is also expressed by a substantive without a preposition. a Sic enim olim loquebantur. b Ille nuper Rornae fuit. c Jam tu autem nobis praeturam geris. d Nunc deinceps ratiocinationis naturam consideremus, e Mox ego hue revertor. f Heri aegrotabat. g Mortuu est hodie. h Sepelietur eras, i Turn tardior atque summissior decebit otatio. j Quandocunque ista gens suas literas dabit, k Dicendum enim aliquando est. 1 Inde judicio damnatus est. m Donee quietem ipse timor fecisset. n Dum haec in Apulia gerebantur, o Romani a sole orto in multum diei stetere. p Ex ea die in hanc diem quae fecisti in judicium voco. q Homerus fuit ante hanc urbem conditam. 20 SELECT SENTENCES. r JSTihil post hominum mernoriam gloriosius. s Haec omnia intra sex dies completa. t Saepe hoc de majoribus natu audivimus. u Vinum aegrotis prodest raro. v Canes interdiu clausos esse oportet. w Ob Eomam noctu legiones ducere coepit.

THE forms of human thought, as expressed in language, are ever an interesting object of contemplation. To understand them in their variety, their force, and their beauty, is a privi- lege only of highly gifted minds. To most minds many of them become stereotyped and lose much of their vital import. Yet something may be done by contemplation, and more by suitable instruction, to revive the force of dead forms, and to bring to consciousness ideas which now escape distinct notice. The object of co- existence or co-etaneous action is a favorite term of the new or Beckerian philology, and is interesting to us as indicating one of the more common and important forms of human thought. An object of co-existent action expresses a circumstance or action coincident in time with the action expressed by the predicate, not to mark the exact time of the predicated action, but to denote a peculiar relation of its own. This objective relation is expressed in Latin by the ablative case, as in a e ; and also by the prepositions, cum, in, sub, joined with substantives, as in f i. a Multi patrimonia effuderunt inconsulte largiendo. b Magno timore atque tumultu convenere. c Decesserat frater meus magno squalore, sed multo etiam majore moerore.- d Hice homines injussu populi Eomani noxam nocuerant. e Vigilando, agendo, bene consulendo, prospere omnia cadunt. SELECT SENTENCES. 21 f Cum dolore illud percepi. g Cum auctoritate rcgnavit. h Aristides in tanta paupertate decessit. i Sub hoc metu villicus erit in officio. 18. Proposition with Object of Manner. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 31, 37, 107, 109, 242. comp. 123, 126. ANY verb or adjective, whether subjective or objective, ad- mits an object of manner; as, 'he lived happily ;' 'he was dangerously sick.' This objective relation of manner develops itself in antithe- ses ; as well and ill ; wisely and unwisely. Hence the generic idea of the verb or adjective is reduced to a specialty ; but not individualized, as in the other objec- tive relations. Hence, too, the object of manner, unless it be a form-word, has the grammatical tone, while the other supplementary ob- jects have not. Compare 'he lived temperately] 'he died happily] with the tone on temperately and happily, and ' he removed to Boston/ 'he died at Salem, 7 with the tone on removed and died. The proper expression for this object of manner is the ad- verb, (from Lat. adverbium, 'to the verb,') or that part of speech which is joined to a verb. It may be regarded as a substantive with a case-ending ; comp. raro, ' rarely,' subito, ' suddenly.' The object of manner, in reference to -the speaker, is ex- pressed by adverbial form-words of manner ; as, ita, sic, aliter. See in a c. Other form-words of manner are developed in compound propositions. The object of manner, in reference to the activity of the verb or adjective, is expressed by a noun in the ablative case, as in d f ; by notional adverbs of manner, ending in um, e, o, ter, atim, etc. as in g j, or by prepositions with their comple- ment, as in k, a Nam ita est homo, b Decet eum sic putare. 22 SELECT SENTENCES. c Aliter ne nos vellemus. cl Miltiades summa aequitate res Chersonesi constituit. e Deos, pura, Integra, incorrupta, et mente et voce, venerari debemus. f Afri more modoque fingo. g Parum claris lucem dare coget. h Apelles pinxit praeclare. i Nova res subito mihi haec objecta est. j Studet diligenter. k Literae cum cura diligentiaque scriptae sunt. 19. Proposition with Object of Cause. See Philol. Stud. pp. 24, 30, 107, 109, 242. comp. 123, 126 ff. ANY verb or adjective, whether subjective or objective, ad- mits an object of cause ; as, 'he died from poison;' 'he was economical from necessity.' The relation of cause and effect, or more generally of ground and consequence, is a relation inferred by the intellect, and not first perceived by the senses. It exists between proposi- tions or judgments, and is properly expressed by a compound proposition ; as, 'Socrates took poison, and therefore died.' But this relation is also expressed as a grammatical relation between words or ideas ; as, ' Socrates died from poison.' It has the form of the modal or temporal ; and is expressed in Latin by the ablative case or by prepositions. These relations of cause are not, like place, time, and man- ner, grammatical relations of ideas, but they are logical rela- tions of thoughts, and are properly expressed by co-ordinate propositions. Neither have they any peculiar form of the pronoun adapted to their use. It is only in an abnormal way that any of these logical relations of thought take the form of a grammatical relation of ideas. We have a cross division of the object of cause. The ground may be either actual, possible, adversative, or final. It may also be either real, moral, or logical. SELECT SENTENCES. 23 A. The Actual-real Ground, or the Proper Cause. One matter of fact is the ground of another matter of fact. This ground or cause may be expressed in a simple propo- sition ; as, ' Socrates died from poison ;' but its appropriate form is a co-ordinate compound proposition ; as, 4 Socrates took poison, and died in consequence.' The actual-real ground exists in three forms ; as (1.) 'The moths die from camphor, 7 as in a 1 ; (2.) 4 Men kill the moths with camphor/ as in m ; and (3.) /The moths are killed (by some one) with camphor ;' as in n. The material cause also belongs here ; as in o. The actual -real ground is the basis of all the other relations of the ground and consequence. a Lacrimabat gaudio. b Nimio gaudio paene desipiebam. c Mortuus est fame. d Dei providentia mundus administratur. e Mea opera Tarentum recepisti. f Darius, Hystaspis filius, senectute diem obiit supremum. g Multis in rebus negligentia plectimur. h Concordia res parvae crescunt, discordia maximae dila- buntur. i Miltiades aeger erat vulneribus. j Eclipses non cernuntur propter nubila. k Hannibal aeger erat oculis ex verna intemperie, 1 Incessit passu de vulnere tardo. m Ille eum occidit per fameni. n Ille occisus est veneno. o Statuam ex auro fecit. B. The Actual-moral Ground, or the Motive. A motive is the ground of a free or voluntary act. This may be expressed in a simple proposition ; as, * the good child obeys from affection? but its appropriate form is a co-ordinate compound proposition ; as, * the good child loves his parents , and he therefore obeys them.' 24 SELECT SENTENCES. p Ex invidia eum calumniavit. q Bellum coortum est nulla alia de causa. r Hoc feci propter amicitiam nostram. s Benevolentiam civium blanditiis colligere turpe est. t Plebs novarum rerum studio Catilinae incepta probabat. u Indutiarum quoddam genus misericordia factum est. v Quidam militum interfecere sese ob metum. C. The Actual-logical Ground, or the Reason. One judgment of the intellect is the ground of another judgment of the intellect, or one proposition is the ground of our knowledge of another. This may be expressed in a simple proposition ; as, ''from his appearance, he is an honest man ;' but its appropriate form is a co-ordinate compound proposition ; as, ' the night has been very cold, the flowers must therefore be frozen ; i the flowers are frozen, the night therefore must have been very cold.' 4 The snow has melted on the mountain, for the valley is overflown? w De gestu intelligo, quid respondeas. x Hoc ex eo sciri potest. y Noli judicare secundum faciem. Vulgate. z Metello experimentis cognitum erat, genus Numidarum infidum esse. D. The Possible Ground, or the Condition. The actuality of the effect is conditioned by the actuality of the possible ground. This ground may be expressed in a simple proposition ; as, * he will lay up money with suitable economy? But it is not readily expressed by a co-ordinate compound proposition ; as the stress or emphasis cannot fall on an uncertain condition. aa Beatus esse sine virtute nemo potest. bb Non potest esse solida felicitas absque dei notitia. E. The Adversative Ground, or the Concession. The adversative ground is an opposing ground or cause, which is represented as inadequate to prevent the contrary effect. SELECT SENTENCES. 25 The adversative ground is expressed in simple sentences by means of the particles, in spite of, notwithstanding, with, against '\ etc. as, * we have, notwithstanding the long rain, a deficiency of water;' but the co-ordinate compound is the appropriate form for the adversative ground ; as, ' it has rained a long time, and we have yet a want of water.' It often must have this form. cc In his omnibus non est aversus furor ejus. Vulgate. dd Aequam memento rebus in arduis servare mentem. F. The Ultimate Ground, or the Purpose. The distinction between efficient and final causes is well un- derstood. In efficient causes we consider merely the relation between a given cause and an effect ; in final causes we regard the eifect as an object aimed at, to which the cause contrib- utes as a means. This purpose is expressed in simple propositions by the par- ticles, for, for the sake of, to, from, etc. as, < I read for enter- tainment? 'the ambitious undergo much for the sake of glory? * he works hard to live? The final cause or purpose is related to the moral cause, yet it seems expedient to separate it from the other causes^ and to place it by itself at the close. ee Yirtutes hominibus decori gloriaeque sunt. 20. Proposition with Compound Object. See Philol. Stud. p. 31. comp. 11, 112. A compound objective combination, however complicated it may become, is regarded as expressing only one idea, and that an idea of activity. This will be more easily appre- hended, if we consider that all combination is bimembral; i. e. consists of two members, one of which is subordinated to the other by the intonation, and thus becomes compacted with it ; and that this combination may be repeated again and again. The different objects in Latin are arranged thus : the accus- ative before the verb, the dative before the accusative, the notation of time, place, cause, and manner, before the dative. See in a i. 3 26 SELECT SENTENCES. A complementary object of place takes the last place before the verb ; as in j m. There are many exceptions to these rules ; as in n s. a Caesar singulis legionibus singulos legatos praefecit. b Ob eas causas ei munition! legatum Labienuni praefecit. c Alieno loco cum equitatu Helvetiorum proelium com- mittunt. d Quotidie Caesar Aeduos frumentum flagitabat. e Pompeius sub noctem naves solvit. f Hi omnes, lingua, institutis, legibus, inter se differunt. g Apes ex variis floribus mel conficiunt. h Caesar duabus de causis Khenum transire statuit. i Legati Samiormn auxilium orantes longam orationem habuerunt. j Legatos ad eum mittunt. k Caesar suas copias in proximum collein subduxit. 1 Helvetii impedimenta in unum locum contulerunt. m Flumina etiam saxa in mare volvunt. n Justitia suum cuique dat. o Latrones scelera sua morte luunt. p Justa paterno funeri solvito. q In fines Vocontiorum die septimo pervenit. r Id hoc facilius eis persuasit. s Deus olim in monte legem populo parendam benigniter dedit. 21.

THE simple participle, by the objective modifications which it admits, forms propositions intermediate between the simple and the compound, or makes the transition from the simple to the compound. The participle may be interchanged for a* finite verb connec- ted with the leading verb by the conjunction et. This is the most simple resolution of this participial construction. See in a and most of the other examples. The participle, thus used, may also be resolved into a subor- dinate proposition, and that expressing various relations : 1.

Intermediate Proposition with Ablative Absolute. See Philol. Stud, pp 25, 32, 92 ff. THIS form is used when the subject of the participle is dif- ferent both from the subject and from the object of the main proposition. The Latin ablative absolute is employed in the following dif- ferent ways : (1.) To express the time of the action or event in the leading clause, as in a c. As the ablative absolute strictly denotes the continuance or completion of an action or event in reference to the leading clause, this is its simplest and most natural import. The use of the ablative in this construction is easily explained, especially as the ablative by itself, as a substitute for the locative case, sometimes denotes time; comp. 'die quinto decessit.' (2.) To express the co-etaiieous action, as in d. The ablative by itself, denotes the object of co-etaneous ac- tion ; comp. 'magno tiinore et tumultu.' (3.) To express the cause affecting the leading clause, as in e. The ablative by itself, as the proper ablative, also denotes the Cause; comp. 'aeger vulnerjbus. 7 (4.) To express H condition in the leading clause, as in f. The ablative by itself also denotes the state or condition; comp. 4 pace,' ' bello.' (5.) To express a concession affecting the leading clause, as ing. A concession is nearly allied to a condition ; comp. Lat. 'etsi, r although, with k si,' it! (6.) To express a restriction affecting the leading clause, as in h. A restriction is merely a negative condition, a* 30 SELECT SENTENCES. There are also various forms of the ablative absolute : (1.)

A. Intermediate Proposition with Simple Infinitive. See Philol. Stud. p. 32. comp. Art. XXXII. THE simple infinitive mood, by the objective modifications which it admits, also forms propositions intermediate between the simple and the compound, or makes the transition from the simple to the compound, As the infinitive represents the abstract idea of the verb as a substantive in the ground-form, it is adapted, in its own nature, to express the nominative, whether of the subject or of the predicate, as in a n ; also the accusative or passive object, as in o w ; also the second accusative, as in x dd.

THE same is true of the supine, (including the Latin supine and the Latin gerund so called,) which presents the abstract idea of the verb in an oblique case. There are several varieties of the supine : (1.) The supine in um is the accusative of an abstract noun of the fourth declension. It is employed after verbs of mo- tion to express the design or purpose of such motion ; as in a i. a Themistocles Argos habitatum concessit. b Yenatores canes venatum ducunt. c Galli gallinacei cum sole emit cubitum. d Spero causam meam probatum iri. e Lacedaemonii senem sessum receperunt. f Hannibal invictus patriam defensum revocatus est. g Legati in castra Aequorum venerunt questum injurias. h Divitiacus Honiara ad senatum venit auxilium postulatum. i Fabius Pictor Delphos ad oraculum missus est sciscita- tum, quibus precibus deos possent placare, 34 SELECT SENTENCES. (2.) The supine in u is the ablative of an abstract noun of the fourth declension.

Subordinative Compound Proposition, with a Substantive Proposition denoting the Subject. See Philol. Stud. pp. 25, 32. Art. XLIII. Tab. IV. comp. p. 152. MAN was not long satisfied with the utterance of detached simple propositions. He soon felt the need of expressing their mutual relation and connection. Hence in continuous dis- course we often find two or more propositions bound together. In this way arises the compound proposition. A compound sentence or proposition is the combination of two or more sentences or propositions into one ; and of course the union of two or more sentiments or thoughts into one compound sentiment or thought. The single propositions, in reference to the compound proposition, are called members or clauses. 4 38 SELECT SENTENCES. Compound propositions are either subordinative or co- ordinative. The subordinate proposition stands in a grammatical rela- tion to the leading proposition, i. e. it is a member or factor of some syntactical combination ; while co-ordinate proposi- tions stand in a logical relation to each other. The subordinative proposition is not to be regarded as a composition of already existing parts to a whole, but as a development from the simple proposition. Thus * one who lies will steal,' is developed from i a liar will steal ;' * a soldier, who is cowardly, deserves contempt,' is developed from *a cowardly soldier deserves contempt ;' ' whenever you will, you can prove that your will is free ^ is developed from 'at any moment you can prove the freedom of your will? The subordinate proposition is usually introduced by a rela- tive pronoun or particle, to which corresponds a demonstrative pronoun or particle, expressed or understood, in the leading proposition. The demonstrative and the relative are the two articuli or joints which unite the parts of the compound pro- position. The nature of the demonstrative pronoun or parti- cle determines the character of the subordinate proposition. Substantive propositions are a species of subordinate propo- sitions. They are so called, because, in reference to the lead- ing proposition, they occupy the place, and follow the con- struction of a substantive. Substantive propositions are employed to denote the subject, the immediate complement, and the second complement. There are four varieties of the substantive proposition denot- ing the subject : 1. The proper or abstract substantive proposition denoting the subject. It is introduced by the particles quod, ut, ne. See in a q. 2. The concrete substantive proposition, whether of a person or of a thing, denoting the subject. It is expressed by adjec- tive propositions used substantively. See in r x. 3. The quoted thought or sentiment denoting the subject. In Latin it is scarcely found. See in y, z. 4. The quoted question, denoting the subject. It is intro- duced by interrogative particles. See in aa. The two last varieties are abnormal, not being developed from a simple proposition.

Subordinative Compound Proposition, with an Adjective Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 25, 33. Art. XLIV. Tab. IV. Adjective propositions are a species of subordinate proposi- tions. They are so called, because, in reference to the leading proposition, they occupy the place, and follow the construction of an adjective. They arise also from adjective participials, or verbal adjec- tives, developed to a proposition. Thus from 4 Balbus, having a sword, drew it,' is developed * Balbus, who had a sword, drew it ;' from ' the prudent man looks to the future/ is developed * the man who is prudent, looks to the future.' The adjective is employed as an attribute to modify the sub- ject, as in a k; the complementary object, as in 1 v; and the supplementary object, as in . a Qui a multis timetur, ipse multos timeat. b Nulli flores sunt, qui semper florent. c Non semper iidem metent, qui sementem fecerint. d Sunt regiones, ubi sol fere sex continuos menses non vi- detur. 4* 42 SELECT SENTENCES. e Parentes, qui vitiis liberorum nimis indulserunt, ipsi sua indulgent! a haec auxerunt. f Qui Deum amat, is virtutern amat. g Nihil honestum esse potest, quod justitia vacat. h Deus est qui omnem hunc mundum regit. i Ea est jucundissima amicitia, quam similitudo morum conjugavit. j Pessimum amicorum genus sunt ii, qui semper laudant. k Hostes, qui armis positis ad victoris fidem confugiunt, re- cipiendi sunt. 1 Multi homines aedificant domos, in quibus non habitabunt. m Id optimum puto, quod est rectissimum. n Quem fortuna nimium fovet, eundem stultum facit. o Quae pater possidet bona, eadem olim filius habebit. p Graeci Romanos, qui ipsos armis superaverant, doctrina et omni literarum genere longe superabant. q Graeci deorum lionores tribuerunt iis, qui tyrannos neca- verant. r Ea quae vera sunt dicam. s Arbores serit agricola, quarum fructus ipse aspiciet nun- quara. t Quod turpe est, id contemnere debemus. u Ei plurimum benevolentiae tribuimus, a quo plurimum diligimur. v Nihil tuum die, quod potes perdere. 31. Subordinative Compound Proposition, with Adverbial Proposition expressing the Place. See Philol, Stud. pp. 25, 33, 121f. 124f. 243. comp. 152. ADVERBIAL propositions are a species of subordinate propo- sitions. They are so called because like adverbs they modify the verb of the leading proposition. The special forms of the adverbial proposition correspond to the special forms of the supplementary or adverbial object.

Those expressing the place whence of the action predica- ted in the leading proposition ; as in ra o. Note.

XLVII. There are three kinds of conditions distinguished in Latin, and consequently three kinds of conditional sentences. 1.

Here supply the antithesis, * sed nescio^ but I do not know whether I have it or not ; the probability on either side is equal. See in a g. 2. The second is where there is a mere possibility, but not a probability as to what is said ; as, 4 Si habeam pecuniam, tibi dem,' If I should have money, I may give it to you. Here supply the antithesis, 4 sed dubitoj but I doubt whether I shall have it ; it is more probable that I shall not. See in h, i. 3. The third involves a complete denial of what is repre- sented in the condition, and of course in the clause condition- ated ; as, ' Si haberem pecuniam, tibi darem,' If I had money, I would give it to you. Here supply the antithesis, ' sed non habeo, ergo non do,' but I have not, therefore I do not give. See in j, k. 4 Si habuissem pecuniam, tibi dedissem,' If I had had money, I would have given it to you. Here supply the antithesis, * sed non habui, ergo non dedi, 7 but I had not, therefore I gave not.

E. The Adversative Ground, or the Concession. The adverbial proposition of the adversative ground, or the concession, is introduced in Latin by the particles, etsi, etiamsi, tametsi, quamquam, quamvis, etc. a Etsi Romani victores totius fere orbis terrarum erant, tamen eorum cupido non satiata est. b Optimi homines faciunt, quod rectum, quod honestum est, etsi nullum consecuturum emolumentum vident. c Caesar, etsi nondum hostium consilium cognoverat, tamen ex eventu navium, quod accidit, suspicabatur. d Etiamsi dudum fuerat ambiguum hoc mini, nunc non est. e Vita brevis est, etiamsi supra centum annos duret. f Homo, quod crebro videt, non miratur ; etiamsi, cur fiat, nescit. g Cavete ne mentiamini ; Deus enim omnia audit, etiamsi homines non audiunt. h Ista veritas, etiamsi jucunda non est, mihi tamen grata est. i Rectum est in contentionibus, etiamsi nobis indigna au~ diamus, tamen gravitatem retinere, iracundiam repellere. j Tametsi fur mihi es, molestus non ero. k Age, loquere quid vis, tametsi tibi succenseo. 1 Milites, tametsi ab duce et fortuna deserebantur, tamen omnem spem in virtute ponebant. m Quamquam festinas, non est mora longa. n Quamquam excellebat Aristides abstinentia, ut unus cog- nomine Justus sit appellatus, tamen exsilio decem annorum multatus est. o Quamvis sit magna expectatio, tamen earn vinces. p Erat inter eos dignitate regia, quamvis carebat nomine. 5 50 SELECT SENTENCES.

Subordinative Compound Proposition, with an Adverbial Proposition expressing Intensity. See Philol. Stud. pp. 25, 34, 124, 131. Tab. IV. Intensity is greatness of force or strength, as differing from extension or greatness of bulk. Adverbial propositions of intensity are so called, because they express the intensity of the predicated activity in the leading proposition. It is only when the predicate is in the form of an adjective, or when the verb is modified by an adverb, that its intensity can be expressed by a subordinate proposition. The intensity then refers immediately to such adjective or adverb. Adverbial propositions of intensity express the intensity of the predicated activity, 1 . By comparing it with another activity, or with the samo activity of another subject, (1.) In the way of equality; as in a d.

Compound Proposition, with Various Subordinate Propositions. See Philol. Stud. pp. 34. THE main proposition may be modified by two or more sub- ordinate propositions, and of course may be almost endlessly diversified. SELECT SENTENCES. 53 We shall confine ourselves here to a main or leading propo- sition with two subordinate propositions. A main proposition with two subordinate propositions has the following varieties : 1. The two subordinate propositions may have the same relation to the leading proposition, and thus be co-ordinate to each other ; as in a e. 2. One subordinate proposition may be subordinate to the other, and both to the leading proposition ; as in f m. 3. The two subordinate propositions may be separately and differently related to the leading proposition ; as in n y. The principles of the notation of compound propositions, employed below, are as follows : The capital letters A, B, C, etc. are employed to denote the main or leading propositions ; the Roman letters a, b, c, etc. to express the propositions immediately subordinate to these ; the Italic letters, a, b, r, etc. to express subordinate propositions of the second grade, etc. The sign of addition -f- is employed to unite two co-ordin- ate clauses. The mathematical sign > is employed to express the sub- ordination of one clause to another. The parenthetic marks ( ) are employed to express the in- sertion of one clause, whether subordinate or superordinate, within another. The vinculum over the letters is employed to show that the letters over which it stands are to be taken as a whole. a Quid quaeque nox aut dies ferat, incertum est. b Quae parva videntur esse delicta, neque a multis intelligi possunt, ab iis est diligentius declinandum.

Copulative Co-ordinating Compound Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 25, 34, 138. comp. 150. Tab. V. IN the co-ordinating compound proposition, the two propo- sitions are co-ordinate or independent of each other, yet still make but one thought. In the copulative compound proposition, the members have no internal or immediate relation to each other, but only a common relation to a third proposition or sentiment, either expressed or understood. The conjunction et is the type of this compound proposition. The other copulative conjunctions in Latin are que (en- clitic), ac, atque, etiam; non modo ted etiam, quum turn; nee, neque ; etc. The varieties of the copulative combination are as follows. 1. The copulative combination of two or more sentences or propositions, all of equal logical worth, and unemphatical. See in a g. This is the simplest form of the copulative compound sen- tence. Here the one sentence or clause is enlarged by the other ; or two sentences or clauses are combined into one sentence of greater or more comprehensive import. If two clauses of this kind have a common subject or predi- cate, or other member, they may be abridged by expressing the part which is common only once ; as, 4 Heaven and earth shall pass away.' 56 SELECT SENTENCES. 2. The copulative combination of two or more sentences or propositions, all of equal worth, and emphatic. See in h j. This differs from the preceding in omitting the copulative conjunction, and in admitting a longer pause between the clauses. It is well adapted to give a prominence to the clauses, but not to exhibit their common relation to a third thought or proposition. 3. The copulative combination of two clauses of unequal worth, an emphasis or prominence being given to the second clause, thus forming a climax. See in k p. This form is used when one thought is enlarged by another thought of greater comprehension. 4. The copulative combination of two thoughts, where the emphasis or stress is laid not on the thoughts as thoughts, but on their union or connection with each other, consisting in their common relation to a third sentiment or thought ex- pressed or implied. This is effected in Latin by repeating the conjunction. See in q u. There are two other classes of a mixed character. 5. The adversative or causal combination in the form of a copulative. See in v, w. 6. The copulative combination with adversative or causal particle added.

Antithetic Co-ordinating Compound Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 26, 35, 141. Tab. V. comp. p. 151. IN the adversative combination, the union is much more complete than in the copulative ; the union of the connected thoughts lies immediately in their relation to each other, and not in their relation to something else ; only two thoughts can be thus connected ; and one of the thoughts is made more prominent or emphatic than the other, by being placed last and by having a greater intonation. The antithetic compound proposition is the simplest form of the adversative compound proposition. In this form of proposition the second member negatives or wholly excludes the first. There is of course a negative particle expressed or implied in one of the propositions. 58 SELECT SENTENCES, The conjunction sed is the type of this compound proposi- tion. See in a h. The other antithetic conjunctions in Latin are verum, autem, etc. See in i k. The antithetic particle is sometimes omitted, in which case the first word of the second clause receives a strong emphasis. See in 1, m. Antithetic propositions are capable of contraction, when their members in common are unemphatic. See in d j. Note. One form of this compound proposition, which is very common, becomes a climactic copulative proposition; as, ' Invidia non modo vivos, sed etiam mortuos rodit.' See supra, p. 56. a Avarus non possidet divitias, sed divitiae possident eum* b Non pudor est nihil scire, sed pudor nil scire velle. c Dixisti non auxilium mihi, sed me auxilio defuisse. d Non ego herus tibi, sed servus. e Non heros nee dominos appellat eos, sed patriae custodes, f Haud doctis dictis certabant, sed maledictis. g Otii fructus est non contentio animi, sed relaxatio. h Est philosophi, de diis immortalibus habere non erran- tem et vagam, sed stabilem certamque sententiam. i Ea sunt omnia non a natura, verum a magistro. j Non aetate, verum ingenio adipiscimur sapientiam. k Nam injusta ab justis impetrare non decet, justa autem ab injustis petere insipientis est. 1 Non agitur de vectigalibus, non de sociorum injuriis ; libertas et anima nostra in dubio est. m Tu domum servas, ego laudo ruris amoeni rivos. 39. Restrictive Co-ordinating Compound Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 26, 35, 141. Tab. V. comp. p. 151. THE restrictive compound proposition is a weakened anti- thetic compound proposition. Here the second member restricts or limits the meaning of the first, or shuts out a natural inference. SELECT SENTENCES. 59 The conjunction tamen is the type of this compound propo- sition. See in a c. The other restrictive conjunctions in Latin are sed, verum, vero, autem, at, atqui, sed tamen, veruntamen, at vero. See in d n. The conjunction quidem, l indeed,' often stands in the first clause. See in a, m. Here we have (1.) the opposition of different predicates in the same subject, as in a, b, d, etc. (2.) the opposition of the same predicate in different subjects, as in i ; and (3.) the op- position of different predicates in different subjects, as in g, h, j, P- The propositions are capable of contraction ; as in many of the examples below. The conjunction is sometimes omitted with advantage ; as in o, p. a Non postulo id quidem, aveo tamen audire. b Licet ipsa vitium est ambitio, frequenter tamen causa virtutum est. c Natu|ram expel |las fur|ca, tamen | usque re|curret. d Non for|mosus ejrat, sed ejrat fa|eiindus U|lysses. e Ea non dicunt, verum intelligi volunt. f Fletus plerumque est effectus tristitiae, interdum vero etiam gaudii. g Oscines rostra recta habent, aves autem rapaces adunca. h Sol cuncta sua luce illustrat, luna autem luce splendet ftliena. i Achilles fortis erat, Thersites autem non erat. j Brevis a natura nobis vita data est, at memoria bene red- ditae vitae sempiterna. k Pausanias Lacedaemoniorum patriam sub potestatem Per- sarum redigere conatus est ; at ille meritas poenas persolvit. 1 O rem, inquis, difficilem et inexplicabilem !

Disjunctive Co-ordinating Compound Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 26, 35, 141. Tab. V. comp. p. 151. IN the disjunctive compound proposition, one member or clause so excludes the other, that one proposition is repre- sented as existing only when the other does not exist. The conjunction aut is the type of this compound proposition. The other disjunctive conjunctions in Latin are ve or vel, *eu or sive^ neu or neve. The conjunction nut is employed when the exclusion of the idea of one clause by the other is represented as real and necessary ; as in a e. The conjunction ve or vel is employed when this exclusion is simply allowable or optional ; as in f i. The conjunction seu or sive is employed when the choice between two or more things is to be represented as wholly unknown or undecided ; as in j. The conjunction neu or neve expresses the negation ; as in k. In a, e, h j, we have the disjunctive proposition in its simplest form. In b d, f, g, k, we have the disjunctive rendered emphatic by a repetition of the conjunction. The number of members is sometimes extended to three or more ; as in g. This form of proposition is capable of contraction ; as in many of the examples below. The disjunctive conjunction is sometimes omitted ; as in I. a Audendum est aliquid universis, aut omnia singulis pati- enda. b Omne enuntiatum aut verum aut falsum est. c Aiit pro|desse vo|hint aut j delec|tare po|etae.

Causative Compound Proposition. See Philol. Stud. pp. 26, 35, 142. Tab. V. comp. p. 152. THE illative compound proposition, and the causative com- pound proposition, agree in the logical relation of their mem- bers to each other, but differ in the logical worth of the same. Or, to be more explicit, the illative and causative propositions agree substantially in this, that their members have the same logical relation to each other, to wit,- the relation of ground and consequence ; but the comparative logical worth or import of the members, as expressing the ground or the consequence, is inverted. In the causative proposition, the second member, which of course has the intonation and possesses the greater logical worth, is introduced by a causative conjunction, and expresses the ground or reason of the first member. The conjunction nam is the type of this compound propo- sition. See in a c. The other causative conjunctions in Latin are namque, nempe, enim, etenim. See in d 1. Causative propositions express either (1.) the real ground, as in most of the examples below ; (2.) the moral ground, as in a, j, 1 ; or else (3.) the logical ground, as in h. 6 62 SELECT SENTENCES. a Colenda justitia est per se, nam aliter justitia non esset. b Aristides decem annorum legitimam poenam non pertulit ; nam sexto fere anno in patriam restitutus est. c Rerum bonarum et malarum tria sunt genera.

The other illative conjunctions in Latin are igitur, ergo, eo, ideo, idcirco, hinc, inde, proinde, quapropter, quare, etc. See in d n.

Negative Proposition. See Philol. Stud. p. 169. comp. Art. LTX. IT was intended that the preceding propositions should all of them be positive or affirmative ; but a few negative, inter- rogative, and imperative propositions have slipped in by inad- vertence. We proceed to the special selection of negative sentences. The idea of negation, being a simple idea, is clear and dis- tinct in itself. But it has no special mood-form. In the negative proposition, the negation belongs, strictly speaking, to the copula or predication, and not to the predi- cate. In the usage of language, however, the negation ia 6* G6 SELECT SENTENCES. expressed by a negative adverb attached to the verb, as more easy of apprehension by the mind. The adverbs used for this purpose are non and hand. The latter is comparatively infrequent. a Non pluit. b Sol non lucet. c Dies non est calidus. d Terra non est planities. e Scio haec non tibi esse voluptati. f Non mittet cutem nisi plena cruoris hirudo. g Ego quod dixi haud mutabo. h Haud erit, ut merito immortalis possit haberi. 45. Proposition with Negative Subject or Object. THE negation here virtually belongs to the whole predicate, or rather to the predication ; but the negative is attached to the subject or object for the sake of being more easily appre- hended by the mind. There are three varieties of this proposition : 1. Where the negative is attached to the subject; as in ac. 2. Where the negative is attached to the complementary object ; as in d g. 3. Where the negative is attached to the supplementary object ; as in h k. a Unde habeas, nemo quaerit. b Omnium mortalium Sthenio nemo inimicior. c Elephanto bestiarum nulla prudentior. d Nihil praetermisi. e De republica nihil loquebantur. f Graii praeter laudem nullius avari. g Neutris cura posteritatis est. h Nusquam equidem quicquam deliqui. i Probi mores nunquam prodesse cessabunt.

Proposition with Negative Attribute. SOMETIMES the negation respects not the proposition itself, but some idea contained in it ; as, for example, an attribute. The negation attached to the attribute is often privative rather than negative ; as in some of the examples below. a Literae tuae mihi non injucundae fuerunt. b Non existentis nulla sunt jura. c Non entis nulla sunt praedicata. d Non pauci dies intercesserunt. e Non paucis verbis haec res explicari potest. f Non omnes senes prudentes sunt. 47. Proposition with Double Negation. Two negatives in the same clause, acting reciprocally upon each other, destroy the negation. In other words, the nega- tion of a negation is equivalent to an affirmation. This must be considered as the general rule in all languages. Of this there are in Latin three varieties : 1. Where the two negatives are in close contact, and act directly upon each other ; as in a i. 2. Where the two negatives are not in so close contact ; as in j q. 3.

It is found in imperative, optative, and conjunc- tive forms of language. The negative is willed or conceived of, rather than declared. It is subjective, rather than objec- tive. It is expressed in Latin by the simple ne, rather than by the more emphatic non. We include here 1. Negative imperative sentences, or conjunctive sentences used imperatively ; as in a g. 2.

See Philol. Stud. p. 170. Art. LXI. THE interrogative proposition, in its direct form, has a peculiar intonation in nearly all languages. Many cultivated languages have a peculiar mark also for the interrogative proposition, namely ?. This mark should be employed only in the direct interrogation. The different forms of the interrogation in Latin are as follows : SELECT SENTENCES. 1. The simple interrogation, to be answered in the affirma- tive or in the negative ; as, Venitne pater ? ' Has the father come ?' See below in this section. 2. The imperfect interrogation, to be completed in one of its members or factors ; as, Quis Caesarem occidit ? 4 Who killed Caesar?' See section 53. 3. The disjunctive interrogation, where one question is to be answered in the affirmative and the other in the negative ; as, Utrum ea vestra an nostra culpa est ? ' Is that your fault or ours ?' See section 54. 4. The subordinate or indirect interrogation, corresponding to each of the preceding ; as, Quaesivi, num pater venisset, ' I inquired whether the father had come ;' Nescio quis sis, ' I know not who you are.' Quaeritur unusne sit mundus an plures, 4 It is a question whether there is one world or many.' See section 55. The simple interrogative proposition is a simple inquiry whether the predicate belongs to the subject. There are several particles in Latin, serving to introduce this form of interrogation, as an, ne (enclitic), num, which are all connected with and derived from the Latin negative particle ne. An, however, is hardly used in the simple interrogation. Ne is employed where information simply is desired ; as in a c. Num is employed where a negative reply is expected ; as in d g. Nonne (the opposite of simple ne) is employed where an affirmative reply is expected ; as in h, i. An is said to be employed only when a preceding question is to be supplied in thought ; as in j n. Sometimes the interrogation is left to be denoted by the intonation only ; as in o t. Note. Ne annexed to an or num (also utrum) gives em- phasis ; as in g. a Venitne pater ? b Videsne, ut pueri ne verberibus quidem a contemplandis rebus perquirendisque deterreantur ? c Estne Sthenius is, qui omnes honores domi suae magnifi- centissime gessit ?

Imperfect Interrogative Proposition. See Philol. Stud. p. 170. Art. LXI. THE imperfect interrogative proposition is addressed to an- other for him to fill up as to some deficient member or factor. For this form of the interrogation the Latin language has a beautiful series of interrogative words, representing the various grammatical categories, and all commencing in reality or by implication with the interrogative element qu. These interrogative words are (1.) subst. of the person, qui? (2.) subst. of the thing, quid? (3.) adj. of preference, uter? (4.) adj. of quantity, quantus? (5.) adj. of number, quot? (6.*) ordinal adj. quoins? (7.) adj. of manner, qualis? (8.) adv. of place where, ubi? (9.) adv. of place whither, quo? (10.) adv. of place whence, unde? (11.) adv. of time, quando? (12.) 7 74 SELECT SENTENCES. adverbs of manner, quomodo? qui? quam? ut? (13.) adverbs of the cause, cur? quare? Note.

SELECT SENTENCES. 65. Subordinative or Indirect Interrogative Proposition. THE interrogation, although it is properly a full thought, is often treated as a subordinate proposition. It then forms a species of substantive proposition. See supra, p. 38. It then ceases to have the interrogative intonation. The forms of the indirect interrogation correspond to the three forms of the direct interrogation given above. A. The Simple Interrogative Proposition to be answered in the Affirmative or in the Negative. This form of the interrogation is rendered subordinate by prefixing the particles num or si ; as in a e. Sometimes the form and intonation of the direct interroga- tion is retained as in f. a Quaesivi, num pater venisset. b Dubito, nun* id tibi suadere debeam. c Visam si domi est. d Philopoemen quaesivit, si Lycortas incolumis evasisset. e Tentata res est, si primo impetu capi Ardea posset. f Quaesieras ex me, nonne putarem ? B. The Imperfect Interrogative Proposition to be filled np as to some Member or Factor. This form of indirect interrogation differs from the direct in the intonation ; but it employs the same series of inter- rogative words. a Nescio quis sis. b Quis sim, ex eo quern ad te misi cognosces, c Quaero quid facturus sis. d Non satis constabat quid ageret. e Videbis quid et quo modo. f Exponam vobis breviter, quid hominis sit, g Ambigitur, uter utro sit prior. h Noli spectare, quanti sit homo, i Nescio quot sint. j Scire vejlim char|tis pretijum quotus [ arroget [ annua.

WE come now to the question and answer, an interesting portion of grammar for those who would learn to speak Latin. The interrogative proposition here concerned is that described in section 52. The type of the affirmative answer is etiam or ita, and that of the negative is non ; as in the following phrase from Cicero, 4 aut etiam aut non respondere. 7 The affirmative answer is expressed as follows : 1. By the adverbial particles etiam, ita, or more strongly by vero, verum, sane, sane quiderfi, recte, optime, etc. See in a i. These particles modify the leading verb of the question, which is to be supplied. 2. By the verb or some leading word of the question. See in j m. 3.

The Imperative or Volitive Proposition. See Philol. Stud. Art. LXII. THE nature of the volitive proposition consists in its being an immediate expression of the will. As the volitive proposition proceeds from other faculties of the mind than the intellect, it forms, like the interrogation, a distinct mood from the indicative. This mood is employed, 1. To express a command; as, ' abij depart. 2. To express an exhortation; as, l nosce te ipsum,' know thyself. 3. To express an entreaty ; as, l ferte misero atque innocent! auxilium,' bring succor to an unhappy and innocent person. 4. To express a wish ; as, - vive felix, 7 live happy. 5. To express a permission ; as, l estoj let it be so. 6. To express a promise or threatening ; as, ' divide et im- peraj* divide and conquer. But the promise and threatening do not, logically considered, belong to the volitive or imperative. These five forms of the volitive mood are easily distinguished from each other by the context and the intonation. They form a sort of sliding scale from the strict imperative or jussive to the merely permissive, which is, as it were, an evanescent vo- litive. SELECT SENTENCES. 81 The volitive proposition is expressed in Latin by the impera- tive mood, so called, and also, particularly in its lower forms, by the present of the subjunctive and by the first and second future of the indicative. See in g i, n, o, z, cc, dd, ff jj. The volitive mood, from its nature, as a command, has prop- erly no third person, much less a first. But the Latin language has a third person, which is employed in legal sanctions, and in the lower forms it has all the persons. To most of these forms of expression, there is a correspond- ing negative form with ne and neu or neve ; as, 1. ' Ne aude? dare not. 2. l Ne time, 1 fear not. 3. 'Ne mQpercuteJ do not strike me. 4. 'Ne morij may you not die. The Latin language has certain periphrastic forms, by "which the emphasis is taken from the command or prohibition, and placed on the thing commanded or prohibited; as, l curafes- tinesj see that you hasten; l cave nimium festines] take care lest you hasten too much ; * noli dubitarej be unwilling to doubt. The Latin imperative has two forms, viz. ama, and amato, the exact relation of which to each other is still contested. 1. The Jussive. a Procul este, profani, totoque absistite luco. b Hominem mortuum in urbe ne sepelito, neve urito. c Non satis | est pul|chra esse po|emata, | dulcia | sunto, d Et quo|cunque vo|lent, ani|mum audijtoris ajgunto. e Magistratus donum ne capiunto, f Impius ne audeto placare donis iram deorum. g Ne me attingas, sceleste. h Aut bibat, aut abeat. i Si quid acciderit novi, facies ut sciam. 2.

There are, however, trimembral and multimembral periods.

In example a we have first the inscription Reges Romano- rum, meaning l These are the kings of the Romans, and their doings ;' and then seven specifications of what each king did. There is no summing up at the close. The whole is neatly ex- pressed. In example b we have the general assertion, Helvetii angustis finibus continentur, and then the three propositions, on which this conclusion rests. There is no summing up at the close. The whole is neatly expressed. In example c we have first the general proposition, consuetu- dinis magna vis est ; then illustrations of this truth drawn from the huntsman, the gladiator, and the soldier severally; and then a summing up of the whole, tantum exercitatio, consuetudo valet. In example d we have the general proposition, maximae urbes maximorum flagitiorum sunt magistrae ; and then a proof of this assertion by reasoning from step to step to the conclusion. In example e we have the several changes of sovereignty in Greece from the Athenians to the Macedonians. There is no summing up. In exam pie /we have the benefits of learning drawn out, for the most part, in antitheses. There is no summing up.

Observe the imperfect tense in the first proposition. Ejus latus per cut lens, the participle used adverbially or ge- rundively, that is, expressing the object of coetaneous action. See supra, section 23. At ego soleo, a restrictive proposition referring to what might be supposed to be in the mind of the speaker. 2. Qui didicerat, an adjective clause referring to homo. Quum Lacedaemoniorum cuidam dixisset, etc., an adverbial proposition of time. Lacedaemoniorum posse, an accusative with an infinitive, dependent on se non arbitrary another accusative with an in- finitive, which again is dependent on dixisset, which is itself in a subordinate proposition. 3. Quanam ratione inimicum, an indirect interrogation, here employed as a substantive clause, forming the second ob- ject to interroganti. Probum et honestum hominem, a fine example of the facti- tive object; see supra, section 15. 4. Quid hominibus, a substantive clause, forming the sec- ond or indirect object after the passive participle rogatus. Qui nihil aliud habent, an adjective clause referring to illi. 5. Uvas melius pinxi, quam puerum. The last clause is an adverbial proposition of intensity. See supra, section 35. 6. The whole sentence is a subordinative compound proposi- tion. The subordinate member is introduced by the relative adverb of manner ut, and the leading member by the correla- tive demonstrative particle ila. See supra, p. 38, Each member of the whole sentence is again subdivided into two propositions, co-ordinate with each other, and combined asyndetically for the sake of emphasis. See supra, p. 56. The symmetry of the external form is finely adapted to the beauty of the comparison. 7. This whole sentence is a co-ordinative compound proposi- tion, the members of which stand in a causal relation to each other. The first member is again subdivided into two clauses, the former of which being an adverbial proposition of time, and the latter an interrogation. 8* SELECT SENTENCES 8. This sentence is a period formed of a long protasis and a short apodosis. The latter is introduced by the particle ita. The protasis consists of two comparisons, each formed regu- larly by ut and sic, and the two united copulatively by the conjunction atgue. Observe the parenthetic thought ut in eodem simili verser, in Trhich the author calls the comparison here employed a simile. 9. This is a trimembral period, consisting of two protases and one apodosis. Quod magis alliciat ad diligendum is an adjective clause re- ferring to nikil. Quos nunquam vidimus is an adjective clause, referring to eos. Observe here that the negation in nihil belongs not to the subject of the sentence, but to the predication ; see supra, sec- tion 45, 10. The protasis is a single proposition, introduced by si. The apodosis is followed by two subordinate propositions, which are combined copulatively, with the emphasis on the combination ; see supra, section 37, 4. 11. An asyndetic compound proposition. The Lord's Prayer, with a full Analysis. PATER noster, qui in coelis, sanctiflcetur nomen tuum. Ad- veniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in coelo, et in. terra. Panem nostrum supersubstantialem da nobis hodie. Et dirnitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne inferas nos in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Quoniam tuum est regnum, et potentia, et gloria, in secula. Amen. This prayer consists of the invocation, seven petitions, and the doxology. As the petitions proceed in an uniform tone, whether of desire or entreaty, there is little occasion for varied rhetorical forms of thought. Pater, l father,' here in the vocative or compellative case, which, like the interjection, intermingles with continuous dis- course, but makes no part of the proper proposition. Nosier, l our,' possessive adjective pronoun, here joined at- tributively with pater , and individualizing the generic idea of father. SELECT SENTENCES. 91 Qui in coelis, * who (art) in heaven,' an adjective proposi- tion, referring to pater noster ; here employed, however, not for specification, as the idea of father is already individualized, but for rhetorical embellishment by exhibiting the subjective feel- ings of the speaker. Sanctificetur, i let be hallowed,' third pers. sing. pres. subj. pass, here used for the imperative in one of its lower forms of meaning, to wit, the optative, the third person of the impera- tive being used only for the strict imperative or jussive. Nomen, ' name,' the subject of sanctijicetitr. Tuum, i thy,' possessive adjective pronoun, joined attribu- tively with nomen, which is thus individualized. Adveniat, i let come,' third pers. sing. pres. subj. used for the imperative, like sanctificetur above. Regnum, i kingdom,' the subject of adveniat. Tuum, * thy,' as before, here individualizing regnum. Fiat, ' let be done,' third pers. sing. pres. subj. used for the imperative, like adveniat and sanctificetur above. Voluntas, ' will,' the subject of fiat. Tua, ' thy,' as before, individualizing voluntas. Sicut in coelo, l as (it is done) in heaven,' an abridged ad- verbial proposition of manner, introduced by the compound particle sicut, (liter. 'so as/) and subordinate to the leading proposition fiat voluntas tua et in terra. Et, ' also,' denoting intensity. In terra, l on earth,' the adverbial object of locality after the verb fiat. The three preceding propositions are asyndetic, or without a conjunction. This serves to enhance the logical value of the separate propositions. Panem, l bread,' the passive or suffering object of the verb da. Nostrum, ' our,' as before, here joined attributively to pa- nem. Supersubstantialem, i necessary for subsistence,' here joined attributively to panem. Da, ' give,' second pers. sing, imper. here used in the sense of entreaty. Nobis, ' to us,' the dative of person sympathizing, another object of the verb da. Hodie, ' to-day,' adverbial object of time, a third object of the verb da. Et, ' and.' 92 SELECT- SENTENCES. Dimitte, * forgive/ second pers. sing, imper. here used in the sense of entreaty, like da, above. Nobis, ' to us,' as before, ; here the dative of person sy mpa- thizing after the verb dimitte. Debita nostra, * our debts,' the passive or suffering object after the verb dimitte. Sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris, l as we also for- give our debtors/ an abverbial proposition of manner, intro- duced by the compound particle sicut (liter. ' so as,') and sub- ordinate to the leading proposition dimitte nobis debita nostra. Et, * and,' as before. Ne in/eras, l do not lead,' second pers. sing. pres. subj. with a negative particle, here used for the imperative in the sense of entreaty. JVos, ' us,' as before, here passive object after the verb infer as. In tentationem, i into temptation,' another object after the verb inferas. Sed, 'but,' conjunction introducing the co-ordinate adversa- tive proposition, libera nos a malo. Libera, * deliver,' imperative, here used in the sense of en- treaty. Nos, * us,' passive object after libera. A malo, l from evil,' another object after libera. The three preceding propositions are polysyndetic, or abound- ing in conjunctions. This serves to make emphatic the addi- tion of each new thought. Quoniam, 'since,' conjunction introducing a causal subordi- nate proposition. Better nam, l for,' conjunction introducing a co-ordinate causal proposition. Tuum, l thine,' as before, here used predicatively. Jfc,*is.' Regnum, ' the kingdom,' as before, the subject of est. Et, l and,' as before. Potentia, i the power. 7 Et, ' and,' as before. Gloria, 4 the glory.' In secula, ' for ever,' object of predicate tuum, denoting the time how long. The polysyndetic form of the preceding sentence throws em- phasis on the addition of each particular. Amen, c so be it,' a Hebrew word, adopted into ecclesiastical Latin, and to be regarded as an interjection. II. DIALOGUES. 1. Frederic and Charles. F. Hens ! heus !

LEO, quum capram in alta rupe stantem videret, monuit, ut potius in viride descenderet pratum. Cui capra : Non ea sum, inquit, quae dulcia tutis praeponam. Notes, Quum videret, an adverbial subordinate proposition of time, here forming' the protasis to the first sentence. Ut pratum, a substantive subordinate proposition, here forming the second or indirect object after monuit. Quae praeponam, an adjective subordinate proposition, re- fering back to ea. Non ea sum quae, i I am not wont to prefer pleasure to safety/ liter. 'I am not such a one that should prefer, etc.' The Latin idiom consists in the use of is for talis. 2. The Crab and his Mother. Cancrum retrogradum monet mater, ut antrorsum eat. FH- ius respondet : Faciam, si te idem facientem prius videro. Notes. Ut antrorsum eat, a substantive subordinate proposition, here forming the second or indirect object after monet. Si videro, a condition with absolute uncertainty. See su- pra, p. 48. 3. The Kid and the Wolf. Supra tectum domus stans haedus lupum praetereuntem in- clamabat, et illi maledicebat. Cui lupus : Non tu, inquit, sed tectum mihi maledicit. FABLES. 103 Notes. Supra maledicebat. Observe the imperfect tense. This compound proposition consists of two simple propositions con- nected copulatively. Non tu, sed tectum mihi maledicit. An abridged or con- tracted antithetic combination. See supra, p. 58. 4. The Gnat on the Bull's horn. In cornu tauri culex sedens : Si, tibi, inquit, mole mea mo- lestus sum, protinus avolabo. At ille : Te, inquit, prorsus non senseram. Notes. Si tibi avolabo. The condition here is that of absolute un- certainty. See supra, p. 48. At ille senseram. This whole proposition is restrictive of the preceding. See supra, section 39. 5. The Fox and the Grapes. Uvam alte dependentem conspicatur vulpecula. Identidem subsiluit, atque eniti ad earn tentavit. Quod quum frustra fe- cisset, discedens : At acerbae sunt, inquit ; in via oblatas non sumerem. Notes. Uvam vulpecula. The use of the present tense gives vi- vacity to the narrative. Identidem tentavit, a copulative combination of two mem- bers. Quod quum frustra fecisset, when she had done this in vain. The Latin idiom permits the use of two relative words in im- mediate consecution in the same clause. Not so the English. At acerbae sunt, a restrictive proposition, referring back to what might be supposed to be in the mind of the speaker.

Quum vero in nemus venisset, inter dumeta cornibus adhaerescens, quod celeritate pedum uti non poterat, a leone captus est.
