VERB FORMS IN PLAVTVS. 
 
 This account of tiic verb forms in Plautus proceeds in the same direction 
 as my earlier papers on noun, adjectival, and adverbial forms {Classical Review, 
 
 July, .December,' ifot, |»% 1903). I feel strongly ■fhit something is needed 
 on Plauiiic ferms tiat sball be more complete and accurate than anything 
 that yet exists. The statements that one meets with, that this or that form 
 IS "comaiJi:* Of' ••regiibr,-1a Plautus, are frcqiewtly misleading, or even incorrect, 
 and a«e «suafly unsatisfying. I do not think it is of much import whether 
 a word occurs fifty times or fifty-five, but it often is important to know whether | 
 it occurs filly titocs,: »• |i«, or once,. « not at. all • 
 
 As my examination has advanced. I bave gained an increasing respect 
 for manuscript tradition, a growing belief that the irregularities are, after all, 
 m a certain sense regular. The whole systeiii of inflexion— and, I suspect, 
 of syntax also and of versification— was less fixed and stable in Plautus' time 
 than it became later, and yet we cannot deny the reigii <?f law therein to a 
 large extent. I look, therefor^ «pop the lung lists of variations to be noted in 
 §§ 45» 46, 58 vi* if indicative, not of the carelessness of the copyists, but 
 rather of the real state of the language as Plautus knew it and used it.

 Out of 234 instances, therefore, only 29 end in -ris, and of these only 8 
 must so end. Interrogative forms in -in are not included in these figures. 
 
 In Cure. 40, 41, the joke depends upon the termination -re\ Phaedromus 
 uses obloqiiere as an indicative, but Palinurus chooses to understand it as an 
 imperative. Compare the assonance in Most. 5 1 : —

 These figures show that the statements made in Madvig's Grammar, § 114, b 
 certainly do not all hold good for Plautus. Of the words occurring most 
 frequently, we may notice arbitrare, 10 ; fabtdare, 9 ; morare^ 7 ; uidere^ 9 ; loquere 
 and compounds, 30 ; loqueris^ 4 ; mentire^ 4 ; mentiris^ 3.

 § 13. — Reduplication, 
 
 51 
 
 Gellius, VI. 9, mentions c^curri, m&mordt, ^^posci, ^epugi, s^^pondi, as occurring 
 in early Latin. He cites from Plautus adm^mordit, Aul. frag. 2 ; to this we may 
 add memordit, Poen. 1074 {me motdit, C ; momordit, B). 
 
 Pupugi seems not to occur in Plautus in any form, and cucurri only in 
 compounds. Of the other words we have at least three instances :—/^/^ja/, 
 True. 240 ; popSscMt, S. 556 ; and spopondi, Trin. 427,— all with -o-. 
 
 Gellius, VI. 9, also cii^s praemorsisset. Frag. 120, Trigemini. There are at least 
 eleven instances of reduplication in compound verbs, viz. : — 
 
 abscondidi, Mere. 360, Frag. 51, Carbonaria (Priscian).

 Tetini and tenui are discussed by Lindsay, in Harvard Studies, IX, 127-130. 
 He finds tetini established for Plautus by these four places : — 
 
 As. 582, contini {continui, MSS.), required by metre. 
 Am. 926, abstinei {abstines, MSS.). 
 Am. 690, continit {continet, MSS.). 
 Mil. 1327, attinere (with transposition). 
 
 Tenui, and compounds, occurs 12 times, but Lindsay is of the opinion that 
 " there is not sufficient evidence to prove that it ever was used by Plautus," or, if it 
 was used by him, to determine how far it competed with the form tetini.

 § 17. — Habes with Perfect Passive Participle. 
 
 This occurs very frequently in Plautus, but ** Cases in which it is the 
 equivalent of the perfect active are more rare than has been supposed ; probably 
 there are none in Plautus." Morris. See Thielmann, in Archiv L.L. II, 
 372-423, S09-549. 
 
 Future Perfect. 
 
 § 18. — Quantity of -i-. 
 
 Short -/- is correct for the future perfect, long -/- for the perfect subjunctive ; 
 but the two tenses are often confused in quantity. In Plautus we find 6 (10 ?) 
 instances of short -i- in the future perfect, and 7 (8 T) instances of long -i- ; 
 in the perfect subjunctive 10 (12 ?) instances of long -/-, and 5 of short -/-. 
 He seems, therefore, to be somewhat more correct in his measurement of the 
 perfect subjunctive. Cf. § 26. 
 
 (i) Short -/- : —

 The 21 instances of these words med. vs. are (except Cas. 176, 177) well 
 attested by MSS. (3 by ABCD), and 1 1 of them seem required by metre (baeehiac 
 verse, i ; cretic, i ; fourth foot of senarius, 4 ; scattering, 5). Leo generally retains 
 them in such places, but prints the shorter forms where the metre does not demand 
 the longer ones. Lindsay, on the contrary, nearly always accepts the MSS. read- 
 ings, whether required by metre >r not. In R. 321, siet would give a solitary 
 iambic octonarius in a long series of iambic septenarii, 290-413. In Cas. 514 the 
 initial siet comes by copying the final siet of 5 13. Note Men. 341 : —

 Active and Deponent Forms. 
 
 ■ 
 
 § 46.— Seventy-six verbs show forms wavering between active and deponent 
 or differing from the forms usual in other authors. The discussion in Langen, 
 Beitrdge, pp. 59-68, is confessedly only a supplement to a list given by Brix in his 
 note on Mil. 172 ; but, even when taken together, these two lists are incomplete. 
 In the following account strict alphabetical order is departed from occasionally for 
 the sake of bringing together scattered forms.

 Lindsay says {Ancient Editions of PlautuSy p. 106, footnote) " In fact we may be 
 said to be more certain that Plautus used opino . . . than that he used opinor {eg,y 
 Bacch. 155)" He is arguing from metrical considerations, and not from MS. 
 traditions. Briefly, the facts are these :— 
 
 opino must be read in 9 out of 96 instances.

 from it in B. 183,— so the two words cannot be looked upon as making a 
 compound. The ace. compendium occurs with facio 4 times, and 4 times with 
 other verbs.

 satis fecit y As. 437. 
 
 fecisse satis, As. 437.

 (vii) That bene facio and male facio are not true compounds, is shown not 
 only by the failure of the -a- to weaken to -/-, but by such expressions as bene quae 
 in me fecerunty Am. \Z\\ facidnt bH^, Men. 102 1 ; bene et male facere, B. 655 ; 
 
 ad mali faciundum, E. 378, colon end of iamb, septen., mal^ with syllaba anceps. 
 
 Cf. Trin. 328, 633, Poen. 12 12.— There are at least 40 places where the adverb does 
 not directly precede the verb. There is a nest of instances in True. 465-470. 
 
 The same is true of bene dico and male dico ; e.g. TV potius bene dkere

 a9c{um) ire^ Ps. 899. 
 
 (ii) intro ire, and not introire, is the prevailing usage. 
 
 (a) Such expressions as ite intro, ibo intro, are common. 
 
 (b) Intro is frequently separated from the verb by other words, and may 
 precede or follow it, e,g, 
 
 intro te ut eas. Mil. 1385. 
 
 intro quin earn, Cist. 117. Similarly, intro . . . mittar, True. 732. 
 
 ite . . . intro, Aul. 451. 
 
 ihf n , . intro, Am. II4S- 
 
 (c) When intro directly precedes the verb, the -o is prevailingly elided (not so 
 in Mil. 1 168, at main caesura). A good instance is Merc. 567, at verse end, 
 
 intr{p) Ms, 
 5 6 
 
 {d) Rarely the two words seem to make a compound : — 
 
 introibis, or intro \ ibis, B. 907, Men. 662. 
 
 introieris, Merc. 570 (read illo or illuc ?). 
 
 introierit, Trin. prol. 10.

 The instances are so few, as compared with the others, that it is probably 
 better to think of hiatus here, than of true compounds. 
 
 § 56. — Miscellaneous. 
 
 animum aduorto is not a compound, for we find 
 
 aduorto preceding animum, 1 1 times ; 
 
 animum separated from aduorto, 2 instances : As. 732, Animum, Argyrippe, 
 aduorte, and Am. prol. 38, animum omnes quae loquar aduortite, 
 
 • animum aduorto, side by side in this order, approximately 42 instances. 
 
 Curious is Merc. \^, Atque dduortindum ad animum adht benignitds. Trin. 
 1046 gives No7i hoc publice animum aduorti. Mil. 39 is not included in the 
 above enumeration, for it is not quite like the rest : Facdte adudrtis tuom animum 
 dd animiim metim. 
 
 nequeo, etc., 49. 
 
 neque . . . queo, 5.

 to Caligula. 
 
 Two more may be mentioned, Aul. 635, tibiy and Aul. 737, 754, illam, 
 
 (v) Syntax. 
 
 Fortasse, ilicety scilicet and uidelicety though they show no aberration in form 
 have the peculiarity of appearing occasionally with distinct verbal function, 
 governing an infinitive, or taking an accusative of limit of motion. So are found : —

 NOTICES OF PREVIOUa PARTS.: 
 
 ATHEN.EUM.—^'Tbis is the first instalment of a work of gigantic labour which Mr. C. H. Turner has set liimself to 
 mccomi'lish, a complete critical e<tition of the earliest monumonla of the Canon law of the West. ... We may say with 
 continence that what Mr. Tunier has done will not have to be done again. The faultless printing is worthy of the Oxford 
 University Press." 
 
 ENGLISU HISTORICAL REVIEW.— "Mt. Turner has begun the work of editing, with a full apparatu$ eritieus, the early 
 canons of the Latin Church on a scale so ample, and in a manner so carefully thought out, and so handsomely executed, that it 
 confers honour both upon him and upon the Oxford Press. ... He has packed away, iu the SEiiallest of type, stores of know- 
 ledge which would have ftimiahed out a succession of review articles. . . . The erudition is admirable." 
 
 GUARDIAN.— '"The next part of this fine book is to contain the Latin versions, 'some ten or twelve in number,' of tne 
 Niceue Creed and Canons. We look forward to its appearance with agreeable anticipations, and we are sure all scholars will 
 fbel with us real .satisfaction that so important a work .should have fallen into such competent hands." 
 
 ANALECTA BOLLANDIANA.—'^ 'Ms^guM molia inceptum adgredior,* dit le savant professeur d'Oxford en commenQant 
 la publication des anciens monument*} du droit canon occidental. L'unorrae somme de travail que representent ces deux 
 premiers fascicules niontre bien que I'auteur ne s'cst i)oint exagei6 la difficult^ de sa tllche, et son exemple ramenera k la r6alit6 
 ceux qui pourraient rdver encore d'iniproviser une nouvelle collection des conciles et de la terminer en une ou deux semaines 
 d'aun^es. ... La disijosition typographique est des plus heureuses. ... On pent conclure de tout ceci que les canonistes ne 
 seront pas seuls i proflter du travail de M. Turner. Tous ceux qui s'intiressent aux etudes eccl^siastiques doivent soubaiter, 
 avec nous, qu'il puisse mener k bonne On.'*

 STiiiVD.^it/).— "Perhaps the m(»8t important work on classical scholarship that has issued from any English University 
 in recent years. The first iwrtion of Dr. Faruell's book decisively established his reputation as an authority on Hellenio 
 archaeology, ethnology, and mythology, and the present instalment (which is still to be succeeded by another) will confirm it. 
 No other writor in England in recent years (and in saying it we aro not unmindful of the author of ' The Golden Bough ') has 
 shown a more encyclopaedic knowledge and closer understanding of the ancient texts -or a wider appreciation of all that 
 modern science and research have done to throw light on the history of religious ideas . . . The volumes, in spite ot the 
 ■olidity of their learning, are neither heavy nor dull They are, Indeed, of absorbing interest, and they can bo read with 
 delight even by those who have forgotten most of their Greek, or never had any. The printing and the admirably 
 Illustrative pbites do credit to the lib«)rality of the publishers. It is in all respects such a book as an academic Press does 
 well to produce ! " 1
