arsing the infinitive according to the code of Murray? 101. How do Nutting, Kirkham, Nixon, Cooper, and Sanborn, agree with Murray, or with one an other, in pointing out what governs the infinitive? 102. What do Murray and others mean by "_neuter verbs_," when they tell us that the taking of the infinitive without _to_ "extends only to active and neuter verbs?" 103. How is the infinitive used after _bid_? 104. How, after _dare_? 105. How, after _feel_? 106. How, after _hear_? 107. How, after _let_? 108. How, after _make_? 109. How, after _need_? 110. Is _need_ ever an auxiliary? 111. What errors are taught by Greenleaf concerning _dare_ and _need_ or _needs_? 112. What is said of _see_, as governing the infinitive? 113. Do any other verbs, besides these eight, take the infinitive after them without _to_? 114. How is the infinitive used after _have, help_, and _find_? 115. When two or more infinitives occur in the same construction, must _to_ be used with each? 116. What is said of the sign _to_ after _than_ or _as_? LESSON XXVII.--PARTICIPLES. 1. What questionable uses of participles are commonly admitted by grammarians? 2. Why does the author incline to condemn these peculiarities? 3.

How are participles placed? 6. What is said of the transitive use of such words as _unbecoming_? 7. What distinction, in respect to government, is to be observed between a participle and a participial noun? 8. What shall we do when _of_ after the participial noun is objectionable? 9. What is said of the correction of those examples in which a needless article or possessive is put before the participle? 10. What is stated of the retaining of adverbs with participial nouns? 11. Can words having the form of the first participle be nouns, and clearly known to be such, when they have no adjuncts? 12. What strictures are made on Murray, Lennie, and Bullions, with reference to examples in which an infinitive follows the participial noun? 13. In what instances is the first participle equivalent to the infinitive? 14. What is said of certain infinitives supposed to be erroneously put for participles? 15. What verbs take the participle after them, and not the infinitive? 16. What is said of those examples in which participles seem to be made the objects of verbs? 17. What is sa
