e partitive genitive_. Sec. 331.

_12._ Numerical descriptions of measure are expressed by the genitive
with a modifying adjective. Sec. 443.

_Dative Case_

_13._ The indirect object of a verb is in the dative. Sec. 45.

_14._ The dative of the indirect object is used with the intransitive
verbs /credo\, /faveo\, /noceo\, /pareo\, /persuadeo\, /resisto\,
/studeo\, and others of like meaning. Sec. 154.

_15._ Some verbs compounded with /ad\, /ante\, /con\, /de\, /in\,
/inter\, /ob\, /post\, /prae\, /pro\, /sub\, /super\, admit the dative
of the indirect object. Transitive compounds may take both an
accusative and a dative. Sec. 426.

_16._ The dative is used with adjectives to denote the object toward
which the given quality is directed. Such are, especially, those
meaning _near_, also _fit, friendly, pleasing, like_, and their
opposites. Sec. 143.

_17._ The dative is used to denote the _purpose_ or _end for which_;
often with another dative denoting _the person or thing affected_.
Sec. 437.

_Accusative Case_

_18._ The direct object of a transitive verb is in the accusative and

accusative. Sec. 336.

_22._ Verbs of _making, choosing, calling, showing_, and the like, may
take a _predicate accusative_ along with the direct object. With the
passive voice the two accusatives become nominatives. Sec. 392.

_Ablative Case_

_23._ _Cause_ is denoted by the ablative without a preposition. This
answers the question Because of what? Sec. 102.

_24._ _Means_ is denoted by the ablative without a preposition. This
answers the question By means of what? or With what? Sec. 103.

_25._ _Accompaniment_ is denoted by the ablative with /cum\. This
answers the question With whom? Sec. 104.

_26._ The ablative with /cum\ is used to denote the manner of an
action. /Cum\ may be omitted, if an adjective is used with the
