NOTE. That in the Examples of the Second, Third, and Fourth Conjugations, we have omitted such Parts of the Passive Voice as are supplied by the Participle Perfect with the Verb Sum, viz. The Perfect, and Pluperfect, of the Indicative, and the Perfect, Pluperfect, and Future of the Subjunctive, as being the same in all Conjugations with the Examples of the First, the change of the Participle only excepted: But it is carefully to be observed, that the Participle being an Adjective, must agree in Gender, Number, and Case, with its Substantive, or (which is the same thing) with the Person before it.

1. REMARKS shewing when a LATIN VERB is to be rendered otherwise in ENGLISH than in the foregoing Examples.

[ocr errors]

1. WHEN the continuation of a Thing is signified, the English Verb may be varied in all its Tenses by the Participle in ING with the Verb AM; as,

Pres. I am reading,

Imp. I was reading,

I read.

I did read.

Perf. I have been reading, for I have read.

Plup. I had been reading,

Fut. I shall be reading,

I had read.

I shall read.

So likewise in the Passive Voice, The house is building, Domus ædificatur: The lesson was prescribing, Lectio præscribebatur. Sometimes a is set before the Participle; as, While the house is a building, It is a doing, He is a dying.

2. When a Question is asked, the Nominative Case or Person is set after the Verb, or the Sign of the Verb; as, Love I? Do I love? Can I love? Should he be loved?

3. We have made THOU the second Person Singular, to distinguish it from the Plural; but it is customary with us, (as also with the French and others,) though we speak but to one particular Person, to use the Plural YOU, and never THOU, but when we address ourselves to Almighty God, or otherwise when we signify familiarity, disdain, or contempt..

4. The Perfect of the Indicative is often Englished as the Imperfect; as, Nunquam amavi hunc hominem, I never loved [or did love] this man. See a train of Examples in Ovid. Metamorph. lib. 1. from v. 21. to 39.

5. The PERFECT Tense is frequently Englished by HAD after Antequam, Postquam, Ubi or Ut for Postquam: as, Post quam caperavimus Isthmum, After we had [were] passed over the Isthmus. Ovid. Hæc ubi dicta dedit, When he had spoken these Words. Liv. Ut me salutavit, statim Romam, profectus est, After he had saluted me, &c. Cic.

6. We have chosen MAY, CAN, MIGHT, COULD, &c. for the English of the SUBJUNCTIVE Mood, because these are the most frequent Signs of it, and distinguish it best from other Moods; but very often it is the same with the Indicative, save only that it hath some Conjunction or Ind-finite word before it: such as, If, Seeing, Lest, That, Although, I wish, &c. as Si amem, If I love ; Nè amem, Lest I love; Causa est cur amem, It is is the Cause why I love. Ov. And frequently it hath both i as, Oro ut ames, I entreat that you may love. Idem.

7. The PRESENT of the Subjunctive after Quasi, Tanquam, and the like, is sometimes Englished as the Imperfect; as, Quasi intelligant, qualis sit, As if they understood what kind of Person he is. Cic.

8. When a Question is asked, the Present of the Subjunctive is frequently Englished by SHALL or SHOULD; as, Eloquar an sileum? Shall I speak or be silent? Virg. Singula quid re.
