The fifth transition, from 7Jie to thee, to this, 

 or that, or him, is formed by thje interposition of 

 the particle vi ; as,

Eluvi, he giveth him, 



Eluviyup > we or yoa two giv to him, 



Eluvimu, y or give it. 



Eluvtu, f ^g many give to hini,or give it. 



Eluvimn, 5 



The subjunctive is Eluvili. 



This I perceive to be something equivocal 

 with the perfect tense of the Huiliiches : yet 

 they like to use it, though they themselves know 

 the impropriety of it. Nor is this the only ground 

 of equivocation in their tongue, which is found 

 especially in the prepositions ; where one having 

 many significations, the meaning is oftentimes- 

 very much confused ; as may be seen in the de- 

 clination of their nouns. 



The sixth and last transition is conjugated 

 through all the numbers, moods, and tenses, in 

 the same mamier as the simple verbs^ ami U
