A double Accusative.

VErbs of asking, teaching, arraying, and con∣cealing, will have two accusatives, one of the person, another of the thing; as Rogo is pecu∣niam. Doceo te literas. Quod te jamdudum h•…•…rtor. Induit se calceos. Hoc me cel•…•…bas.

And being Passives, they retain one accusative of the thing, as Sumptumque recingitur anguem, Ovid. Met. 4. Induitur togam. Mart.

But Verbs of arraying somtimes change the one accusative into an ablative or dative; as In∣duo to tunica, or tibi tunicam. Instravit equum penula, o•…•… eque penulam.
