a combination of two consonants, of which the second is a liquid, for example μέμβλω, ο᾿´φλω, ε᾿´γρω, δάκνω, and the pure verbs in -Ω ending in the diphthong ΕΙ, for example ἁγείω, ο᾿πείω, and through -ΥΩ making derivatives in -ΜΙ of more than two syllables, for example πηγνύω πήγνυμι, ζευγνύω ζεύγνυμι, and the Attic ones made barytone, for example α᾿λε´ξω, αυ᾿´ξω, and the poetic ones, as ο᾿´σσω from ο᾿´πτω, and λεύσσω from βλέπω, and πέσσω from πέπτω, and those transferred from futures to presents, as ο᾿´ρσω· ο᾿´ρσεο Λαομέδον πάθη (Λαομεδοντιάδη). α᾿´ξω, α᾿´ζεται δὲ περιαμοιβίην (Ἄξετε δὲ Πριάμοιο βίην), and those in -ΔΩ, if they have Ν or Λ before the Δ, as σπένδω, κυλίνδω, μέλδω, ει᾿´δω (ε῾´λδω)· all these are conjugated up to the imperfect.

ἈΠΟΛΕΙ͂ΤΑΙ is an indicative verb, of the middle voice, of compound form. And from where is it compounded? From the preposition ἀπο` and the verb ο᾿´λλω, ἀπο´λλω, and the future is ἀπολῶ; the middle future, ἀπολοῦμαι, the second person ἀπολῇ, the third person ἀπολεῖται; or from ἀπολῶ of the first conjugation of the perispomena; for the future it has Η or Ε, νοήσω, τελέσω; and it ought to have Η and not Ε; but those having neither of these, but with a penultimate E or Ω, have the future with E, for example τελέω τελέσω, ο᾿λω῀ ὀλέσω. The ΛΕΙ is a diphthong. Why? Those in -ΜΑΙ and -ΤΑΙ want to have the same vowels in the penultimate syllable, and not only these but also those in -ΜΗΝ and -ΤΟ. And otherwise; it has a declension similar to the present passives of ποιοῦμαι. 63 {1PSALM 2.}1 SECOND. It is a part of speech, a noun, of derivative form, and according to meaning, one of the ordinals. And from where does it come? From δεύω, which means to be lacking, as if it were what is lacking from the first, or from being bound to another number. The ΤΕ is unaspirated, why? Generally nouns in -ΤΕΡΟΣ, whether oxytone or barytone, are written with an unaspirated E, for example σοφώτερος, δεξιώτερος, ἑκάτερος, δεύτερος, and any similar. Why is it barytone? Trisyllabic words in -ΤΕΡΟΣ, if the first syllable is long, are barytone, for example φέρτερος, βέλτερος, ι᾿´κτερος, and the like. The oxytone καρτερὸς is not an exception; it comes from κρατερὸς by metathesis of the Ρ. ἽΝΑ, a causal conjunction. Define it. Causal are those that are used for the purpose of giving a reason. They are these: ι῾´να, ο᾿´φρα, ο῾´πως, ε῾´νεκα. With a rough breathing on the I, why? All conjunctions are unaspirated, except for the causal ones; for the causal ones are aspirated, except for ο᾿´φρα. The ΝΑ is short, why? And they end in a short vowel, except for ο῾´πως. The I, why? Every causal conjunction wants to have a short penultimate vowel, except for ο᾿´φρα; but even this has a short penultimate vowel in the common dialect.Ἵνα, why is it barytone? Every conjunction of more than one syllable ending in Α is barytone, for example α᾿´ρα, ο᾿´φρα; so therefore also ι῾´να. The conjunction ἀλλὰ is noted as copulative. Why does ι῾´να have both syllables short? It has the first short according to the rule that says that Ι before Ν, not being by a verbal inflection, is not lengthened, for example Ἴναχος, ι᾿νι´ον; ι῾´να is noted as having a short Ι whether in the conjunction or in the adverb; and the second according to the rule that says that every conjunction ending in a vowel of doubtful quantity is shortened, for example α᾿´ρα, κα᾿῀τα, α᾿λλά; but ἊΝ, when it is from ἐὰν, is necessarily lengthened. 64 How many things does ι῾´να signify? 4; the conjunction, as in ι῾´να γνώωσι καὶ οι῾´δε; the strength, as in ι῾´να κρατοῦντος ω᾿´λεσε θυμοφθόρου; the sinew, as in,[ Il. .♣ρ 522 ].ι᾿῀να τάμη διὰ πᾶσαν. and instead of ο῾´που, as in, ι῾´να γάρ σφιν ε᾿πε´φραδον α᾿γοράασθαι. ΤῚ is a part of speech, an interrogative noun, of neuter gender; the masculine is τίς. And from where does it come? It is primitive, and has no derivation. The τὶς is short, why? Every monosyllabic noun has a long final syllable by nature or position, except for τίς; because those ending in Σ after a vowel of doubtful quantity, making the neuter by dropping the Σ
