Abstract

THE PAST PARTICIPLE OF SUBSEQUENT ACTION In Biblica 51 (1970) 235 f. I hope I proved the existence of a Greek "aorist participle of subsequent action." This construction, about which MOULTON had been sceptical, is important for Acts xvi 6 (xmxv01v<cq) and without it RAMSAY'S South Galatian theory, in which I firmly believe, runs into difficult waters. Although there are Latin parallels-using the perfect participle-I was at the time of writing that article unable to lay hands on a good example from the classical period. I think I can now supply one, from Pliny Natural History 8.185 : Germanici Caesayis manum aveysatus est haut multo postea extincti 1). Cf. also, in English, SHAKESPEARE, Antony and Cleopatra 3.6: "then does he say, he lent me some shipping unrestored." IIO Forter Hill Road, Bedford (England) G. M. LEE 1) H. RACKHAM (Loeb Classics) translates "it (i.e. a sacred ox) turned away from the hand of Germanicus Caesar, who was made away with not long after."
