NV. SIN.		English.	NV. PLV.		Englishe.

hai	2	thou hast.	ave mo. avete	2	you haue,
ha, ave, or ae.	3	he hath	hanno or han	3	they haue

Aggio, ave, and aè, are most commonly vsed of Poetes.

The second person doth commonly ende in, i, in all the Verbes, but somtimes the letters do varie, as, Dolgo, I plain, Dvoli, thou plainest, Dico, I say, di, thou sayest, Paio, I seem, pari, thou seemest, Pongo, I set, poni, thou settest, Seggo, I sit, sjedi, thou sittest, Téngo, I hold, tjeni, thou holdest, vèngo, I come, vjèni, thou commest, Voglio, I will, vvoi, thou wilst, colgo, I gather, coi, or cogli, thou gatherest, Scjolgo, I loose, or vnbynde, scjogli, or scjoi, thou loosest, or vnbyndest, So∣glio, I am wont, svoi, and svoli, thou art wont.

Then are there some that haue, n, before, g, and in some the, g, goeth before the, n, as cingo, cigni, to gyrd, attingo, at∣tigui, to attaine, or to draw vnto, Dipingo, dipigni, to depaint, gjungo, gjugni, to ouertake, mungo, mungni, to melch, Spéngo, spègni, to quench, vpon necessitie may we say, piango, piangi, or piangni, to weepe, pungo, pungi, and pugni, to pricke, stringo, stringi, and strigni, to gripe fast, vnge, ungi, or vgni, to anoint:

but fingo, hath onely fingi, to faine, of glorio, wee say glorio, to glory, and soffio, suffij, to blowe, for the others haue the, i, pure, and these, liqvido, that is moist.

The third person in the first Coniugation doth ende in a, as canta, àma, salta, he singeth, loueth, ••eapeth, and such o∣thers. All the others doo ende in, e, as vede, ride, ode, he se∣eth, laugheth, and heareth, in Posso, we may saye, pvo, pvote, and pvoe, he can, but the two last are Poetical. We also saye often svol, val, and vvol; and also, pon, tién, vièn, riman, and such others may be of the second and thirde, both the one and the other. The two first plurals of this present tyme, and likewise the first of the varying time, are a lyke, but to make them seeme somewhat vnlike, some writers haue chaunged the, m, into, n. and to make them also to disagree from the third that haue the accent on the last sauing two, we put the accent on the last saue one, and say, Noi abbiáno, facciáno, diciáno, we haue, doe, and say, this voyce may also vpon occasion in all Verbes leaue the last vowel, the Verbes that ende in, sco, haue not this first person, we say, pogniámo, t••gm••mo, and traggiámo.

The seconde plural because it dooth not varie a little, maye be knowen from the infinitiue, chaunging the, r, into ••, as amáre, amáte, dovère, dovéte, leggére, leggète, sentire, senti∣te, facete, and dicete, are not to be vsed, sete, you be, or are, is of the Verbe èssere, to be, of the which wee will speake here∣after.

The thirde in all Verbes may loose, and leaue the last vowell, saying, aman, veggon, leggon, di••on, they loue, see, read and say, but in this Verbe and all others of (monosilaba) wee double the, nn, and say, hanno, danno, fanno, sanno, they haue geue doo, or make, and knowe, as partly I haue tolde you in the letter, n, yea sometimes we cast away not only the vo∣well but the whole sillable, and say, han, dan, fan, san, we also say, possono, ponno, and pon, débbono, dénno, and dèn.

The time that foloweth is that, which vntill nowe wee

haue geuen to the imperatiue, the which certainely hath a certaine regarde, or respect more then the others, (as they say) meanes howe to speake, for it doth not alwayes com∣maund, but it exhorteth, forewarnes, graunteth, forbyd∣deth, prayseth, and gesteth, and diuers other such effectes, hauing alwayes à certaine regarde to whom he speaketh, wherefore I call them Respectiues, rather then Impera∣tiues, and set him as a Sise, and not as a Gender, and here I speake onely of his Present, for his Future is set in his owne place.
