Pronominum Constructio.

CƲm passio significatur primitiva, cum actio vel posses∣sio possessiva usurpantur (i. e.) substantiva affectu∣um significant passionem, cum regunt hosce genitivos prono∣minum, mei, tui, sui, nostri, vestri, sed haec possessiva, meus, tuus, suus, noster, vester, activè explicantur.

Ex pronominibus, ipse & idem, omnibus personis jungi possunt.

Idem habet post se, qui, &, ac, atque.

Hic proximitatem, Ille excellentiam, Iste contemptum, significant.

Sui & suus reciproca sunt: hoc est, cum tertia persona redit vel transit in seipsam; ut, Caesar recordatur sui, in∣dulget sibi, amat se; parcit erroribus suis, &c. sed in pri∣mâ & secundâ personâ, non fit reciprocatio, nam non dici∣mus, dixi sibi, sed ei: nec nosti suum fratrem, sed illius.
