2079. (_d._) #Apodosis in the Future.#

#quadrīgās sī īnscendās Iovis atque hinc fugiās, ita vix poteris

effugere īnfortūnium#, Pl. _Am._ 450, _Jove’s four-in-hand if you should

mount, and try to flee from here, even so you’ll scarce escape a

dreadful doom_. #sīquidem summum Iovem tē dīcās dētinuisse, malam rem

effugiēs numquam#, Pl. _As._ 414, _e’en shouldst thou say imperial Jove

detained thee, chastisement thou’lt ne’er avoid_. #sī frāctus inlābātur

orbis, inpavidum ferient ruīnae#, H. 3, 3, 7, _should heaven’s vault

crumbling fall, him all undaunted will its ruin strike_. #neque tū hoc

dīcere audēbis, nec sī cupiās, licēbit#, _V._ 2, 167, _you will not dare

to say this, sir, nor if you wish, will you be allowed_.
