VErbs Active or Deponent, call'd Transitive, because thir action passeth forth on some person or thing, will have an Accusative after them of the person or thing to whom the acti∣on is done; as Amo te. Vitium fuge. Deu•…•… venerare. Usus promptos facit. Juvat me. Oporte•…•… te.
Also Verbs call'd Neuters, may have an Accusative of thir own signification; as Du∣ram
servit servitutem. Longam ire viam. Endimion•…•… somnum dormis. Pastillos Rufillus olet. Ne•…•… vox hominem sonat. Cum Glaucum saltasset. Paterc. Agit laetum convivam. Horat. Hoc me latet.
But these Verbs, though Transitive, Misereor and Miseresco, pass into a Genitive; as Miserer•…•… mei. Somtimes into a Dative. Huic misereor. Sen. Dilige bonos, miseresce malis. Boet.
Reminiscor, Obliviscor, Recordor, and Memini, somtimes also require a Genitive; as Datae fidei veminis•…•…itur. Memini tai. Obliviscor carminis. Som∣time retain the Accusative; as Recordor pueritiam. Omnia quae curant senes meminerunt. Plaut.
These Impersonals also, interest and resert, sig∣nifying to concern, require a Genitive, except in these Ablatives Feminine, Moa, tua, sua, nostra, vestra, c•…•…ja. And the measure of concernment is often added in these Genitives, magni, parvi, tanti, quanti, with thir Compounds; as Interest omnium rectè agere. Tua resert teipsum nosse. Vestra parvi interest.
But Verbs of Profiting or Disprofiting, Believ∣ing, Pleasing, Obeying, Opposing, or being an∣gry with, pass into a Dative; as non potes mihi commodare nec incommodare. Placeo omnibus. Crede mihi. Nimium ne crede colori. Pareo parentibus. Tibi repugno. Adolescenti nihil est quod succenseat. But of the first and third sort, Juvo, adjuvo, laedo, offendo, retain an Accusative.
Lastly, these Transitives, fungor, fruor, utor, po∣tior, and Verbs betokening want, pass direct into an Ablative. Fungitur officio. Aliena frui insania. Utere sorte tua. But fungor, fruor, utor, had antient∣ly an Accusative. Verbs of want, and potior, may have also a Genitive. Pecuniae indiget. Quasi
•…•…u hujus indigeas patris. Potior Urbe, or Urbis.
Somtimes a phrase of the same signification with a single Verb, may have the Case of the Verb after it; as Id operam do, that is to say, id ago. Idne estis authores mihi? for id suadetis. Quid mo vo∣bis tactio est? for tangitis. Plaut. Quid tibi hanc curatio est rem? Id.
