§ 107. 

 The Moods in Relative Sentences. 



1. In the Greek of the Roman and Byzantine periods, the relative in the protasis of 

 a conditional clause is sometimes strengthened by kuI or S e (equivalent to ow, SjjVoTe, 

 hr^iroToiiv, cunqiie). Apocr. Act. Pet. et Paul. 5 "Iva, oirov 8' av evpedrj<i, airoKrav6i)<;. Act. 

 Paul, et Thecl. 25 'AkoXovOtjo-co aot, o-n-ov S' av TTopevrj. IreN. 1, 6, 2 To TTvevfiaTiKov ....

2. When a conditional relative clause expresses that which happens often, customarily, 

 or hahitually, the protasis is put in the present indicative, present subjunctive, or aonst 

 subjunctive. 



But when it refers to time past, the present indicative becomes imperfect indicative ; 

 the present subjunctive becomes present optative ; and the aorist subjunctive becomes 

 aorist optative (§ 84, 3) ; as,
