Lesson 9.

LESSON XCIII.

VERBS. INDICATIVE.

516. The English Indicative must often be rendered by the Latin Subjunctive. Thus, —

1. Often in clauses denoting Cause, or Time and Cause. See Model I.

2. In Indirect Questions. See Model II.

3. In the Subordinate Clauses of Indirect Discourse. See Model III.

4. In Relative Clauses defining indefinite antecedents. See Model IV.

5. In Clauses denoting Result, and sometimes in Conditional and in Concessive Clauses. See Model V.

517. The Indicative with that, in a clause which is used either as the subject or the object of a verb, is generally best rendered into Latin by the Infinitive with a Subject Accusative. See Model VI.

519. REMARKS.

THAT ONE SHOULD MOURN OVER DEATH, lugendam

esse mortem, lit. that death should be mourned.

2. MODEL VI.- WITH SOME IN ONE WAY AND WITH OTHERS IN ANOTHER, aliter cum aliis, lit. in another way with others.

521. EXERCISE.

1. Brutus has written to me; but what he wishes I do not know; for what counsel can I offer him, since I need counsel myself? 2. For the sake of exercising my memory, I recall at evening what each day I have said, heard, and done. 3. When boys, we had the opinion that Socrates, the prince of philosophers, was entirely destitute of all learning. 4. Epicurus says that one cannot live happily, unless one lives wisely, honestly, and justly. 5. Cicero says that no one, who does not live honestly, can live happily. 6. Publius Scipio was wont to say, that he was never less at leisure than when at leisure, nor less alone than when alone. 7. The poets are so delightful that they are not only read, but also committed to memory.

LESSON XCIV.

VERBS.-POTENTIAL MOOD.

522. The English Potential Mood, with the signs, may, can, might, could, would, should, is generally best rendered by the Latin Subjunctive. See Model I.

523. But the Potential may sometimes be rendered by the Indicative, and sometimes even by the Infinitive. Thus,

1. By the Indicative of the Periphrastic Conjugations in the historical tenses, especially in conditional sentences. See Model II.

2. The Potential may be rendered by the Indicative in

expressions of duty, necessity, ability, and the like, and in such expressions as, it would be fair, proper, just, tedious, difficult, better, more useful, etc. See Model III.

3. The Potential after that may sometimes be rendered by the Infinitive. See Model IV.

524. In English, after the conjunctions, if, unless, except, though, although, that, lest, in order that, etc., the verb takes the form sometimes of the Indicative, sometimes of the Potential, and sometimes of the Subjunctive. But the verb after these conjunctions must generally be rendered into Latin either by the Indicative or by the Subjunctive, and in choosing between these two moods, the learner must be guided by the directions given him in his Grammar. See G. 489523; also Model V.
