接続法の用法(目次)
英語原文
(a) In exhortations and in prohibitions with μή (250-259) the subjunctive has an imperative force, and is always future ; as in ἴωμεν, let us go ; μὴ θαυμάσητε, do not wonder.
The future indicative occasionally occurs in prohibitions with μή (70).
(b) The subjunctive with μή, especially in Homer, may express a future object of fear with a desire to avert it ; as in μὴ νῆας ἕλωσι, may they not size the ships (as I fear they will). (See 261.) From such expressions combined with verbs of fearing arose the dependent use of μή with the subjunctive expressing a future object of fear ; as φοβοῦμαι μὴ ἀπόληται, I fear that he may perish.
