Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Syntax of the Indicative and Subjunctive Moods in the Anglo-Saxon Gospels: Dissertation
Regarding the examples, it may be said that in the discussion of constructions where the anglo-saxon usage is at all doubtful, the writer has endeavored to refer to all the examples of the construction in question, except in those instances where the mood of the verb cannot be determined. Thus every example of indirect discourse and indirect question occurring in the text has been noted, also every example of the subjunctive in relative and conditional sentences. In the discussion however of constructions so regular as the hortatory subjunctive, or the subjunctive in final clauses, etc only a few of the examples have been referred to.
