LESSON LXXIII.

Complex Predicate.-Remote Object.

345. The verb of the predicate may be modified by a Genitive, often appearing indeed in the English translation as the object of an action, though in the Greek the distinction between the direct object and this genitive is clearly marked. To indicate this distinction, we will call the latter a remote object, e. g. : Μέμνησο τῆς κοινῆς τύχης. | Remember the common lot. 346. RULE.-Genitive-Remote Object.

The Genitive is used,

1) After verbs of remembering, desiring, caring for, and their contraries, e. g. :

Επιθυμῷ τῆς σοφίας.

I desire wisdom.

2) After verbs of hearing, tasting, smelling, and

3) After verbs involving the force of a comparative, of superiority or inferiority; as, κρα

τέω, to be master of ; βασιλεύω, to rule (be king of); ἄρχω, to rule, e. g. :

Κροῖσος Λυδῶν ἦρχεν.

Croesus was ruling the
Lydians.

4) After verbs of plenty and want, e. g. :

Ὁ δίκαιος οὐδενὸς δεῖται The just man needs no νόμου.

law.

5) After verbs of partaking, touching, laying

hold of, and indeed after any verb when the action relates only to a part of the object, e.g.:

Ὁ ἄνθρωπος μετέχει τῆς | Man partakes of the di

θείας φύσεως.

Κλέπτει τὰ δημόσια.

LESSON LXXIV.

Complex Predicate.-Direct Object with Predicate

Accusative.

349. RULE.-Direct Object with Predicate-Accusative.

Verbs of making, choosing, electing, calling, showing, and the like, are followed by two accusatives denoting the same person or thing, e. g. :

Πυθαγορας ἑαυτὸν φιλόσο- | Pythagoras called himself a philosopher.

φον ὠνόμασεν.

[H. 556: C. 434: S. 166.]

REM.-Here avrov is the direct object, but the other accusative, pióσopov, is neither object nor modifier, but an essential part of the predicate, and may therefore be called the predicateaccusative. The assertion is not that Pythagoras called himself, but that he called himself a philosopher.

350. When verbs of this class assume the passive form, the direct object of the active becomes the subject, and the predicate-accusative becomes the predicate-nominative, e. g.:

Οἱ κόλακες ̓Αλέξανδρον | The flatterers called Alθεὸν ὠνόμαζον. exander a god. ̓Αλέξανδρος θεὸς ὠνομά- Alexander was called a Чето.

god.

351. The predicate noun, whether nominative or accusative, usually dispenses with the article, as in the above examples.

352. In the arrangement of the object and the predicate-accusative, the former generally precedes,

e. g.:

̓Αλέξανδρον θεὸν ὠνόμα- \ They called Alexander a ζον.

LESSON LXXV.

Complex Predicate.-Combined Objects.-Two Accu

satives.

355. The several objects already considered-the direct, indirect, and remote-are not only used singly as modifiers of verbs, but are also variously combined with each other. The principal combinations will now be noticed in order.

356. A few verbs take two direct objects, the one of a person and the other of a thing.
