page 28 note 1 I would add a pretty example from Ovid. Fast, iv. 387

Ante tamen quam summa dies spectacula sistat Ensifer Orion aequora mersus erit.

page 29 note 1 Are we not in danger of exaggerating the differences between the various kinds of subordinate classes, under the influence of the classifications current in our grammars ?—Still I should be very glad if anyone would direct my attention to a really representative collection of subordinate clauses introduced by Relatives of Place.

page 29 note 2 e.g. cases like ; Eur. Ale. 52 (cf. 113—117), where the Optat. stands in present time. These seem to come from Direct Deliberative Questions like πο τις φύγοι; quo fugiat ? (not quo fugeret ?)
