LESSONS IN LATIN. XXXVII. 



DEVIATIONS IN THE SECOND CONJUGATION (contimwd). 



5. Perfect in -i ; Supine in -SUM. 



i. Prandeo, prandere, prandi, pransum, I breakfast. 



ii. Sedeo, sedere, sedi, sessum, I sit. 



In the same way are formed the compounds of sedeo which 

 have prefixes of two syllables ; as, circumsedeo, circumsedere, 

 circumsedi, circumsessum, to sit round, enclose, besiege. The 

 compounds, having prefixes of one syllable, change the e into i ; 

 e.g., assideo, assidere, assedi, assessum, to sit with or by. 



iii. Strideo, stridere, stridi (no supine), to make a shrill or 

 hissing sound. 



iv. Video, videre, vidi, visum, I see; videor, J appear. 



The following take a reduplication in the perfect : 



v. Mordeo, mordere, momordi, morsum, I bite ; and hence, J 

 grieve, vex, or provoke. 



vi. Pendeo, pendere, pependi (supine uncertain), J hang. 



vii. Spondeo, spondere, spopondi, sponsum, I voiv, become 

 liable for. 



viii. Tondeo, tondere, totondi, tonsum, I shear. 



The compounds of these reduplicated verbs follow their 

 several primitives, but drop the reduplication ; as, admordeo, 

 admordi, admorsum, to bite at; preependeo, praependi, to hang 

 before ; respondeo, respondi, responsum, to reply; detondeo, 

 detondi, detonsum, to shear off. 



6. Perfect in -si ; Supine in -TUM. 



i. Augeo, augere, auxi, auctum, I increase (E. R. augment). 

 ii. Indulgeo, indulgere, indulsi (indultum, rare), I yield to,

a sign of manliness, to think of in any way parting with them ; 

 and the love of self-decoration then displayed itself in trimming 

 and dressing the beard. In time, effeminacy led to the shaving 

 of the beard. Besides being clipped, the chin was also shaven 

 and the hair was plucked out, so as to promote what was con- 

 sidered a becoming appearance. Thus, three methods of hair- 

 dressing prevailed clipping (cutting), plucking out, and shaving. 

 Tonsor has a feminine noun, tonstrix, and in the exercise we find 

 tonstricula. Hence we learn that hair-dressing was not confined 

 to men only. 



7. Perfect in -si ; Supine in -SUM. 



i. Mulceo, mulcere, mulsi, mulsum, I soothe. 



ii. Mulgeo, mulgere, mulsi, mulsum, I milk.
