The Perfians have active and neuter verbs like other nations; but many of their verbs have both an active and neuter fenfe, which can be determined only by the conftruction. These verbs have properly but one conjugation, and but three changes of tenfe; the imperative, the aorist, and the preterite; all the other tenfes being formed by the help of the particles to be, and بودن or هستن or of the auxiliary verbs همي and مي to be willing. The paffive voice is formed by add ing the tenfes of the verb fubftantive the active; to the participle preterite of oil it was read. The inflexions of these auxilia ries must be here exhibited, and must be learned by heart, as they will be very useful in forming the compound tenses of the active verbs. .to be بودن The prefent tenfe of this verb is irregular, but very easy, and must be carefully remembered, as it is the model for the variations of persons in all tenfes. This tense joined to nouns, pronouns, or adjectives often coalefces with them, and lofes the initial | elif; as with pronouns, The negatives are formed by prefixing &; or, as pla¡ I am not, &c. نه there is not, as نیست is commonly written نه است but راهیست راه عشق که هیجش کناره نیست . آنجا جز آنکه جان بسپارند چاره نیست "The path of love is a path to which there is no end, in which there " is no remedy for lovers, but to give up their fouls."
