[121] _Volemus_ occurs repeatedly in 7th century Latin.

[122] Cf. O. Schmidt, _Ueber die Endungen des Præsens im Altprovenzalischen_, 1887.

[123] The loss of _-s_ is not confined to the Provençal territory: it occurs also in western France, Catalonia, and the Engadine.

[124] Cf. the reduction of _habēbam_ to _aβea_: § 153.

[125] _Tenér_ _tenír_ really belongs to the second conjugation.

[126] According to Raimon Vidal, this is the regular ending of the 3d pers. sg. of the fourth conjugation.

[127] In _nasquec_ the _ui_ ending occurs twice.

[128] Beside parẹc, coming perhaps from a V. L. ✱_parēvit_ ✱_parēvuit_.

[129] All verbs in _-ndĕre_ took the perfect in _-sī_: _ascos_, _defes_, _pris_, _respos_, etc. _Lĕgĕre_ took ✱_lĕxī_ > _leis_ through the analogy of the p. p. _lĕctum_. So _fĭngĕre_ took ✱_fĭxī_ > _feis_ through _fĭctum_; _frangĕre_, _pĭngĕre_, _tangĕre_ did likewise (_frais_, _peis_, _tais_); and in Provençal _cénher_ < _cĭngĕre_, _esténher_ < _exstĭnguĕre_, _plánher_ < _plangĕre_ followed the example of these (_ceis_, _esteis_, _plais_): hence all verbs in _-nher_ have the preterit in _-s_.

[132] _Tĕnuī_ and _vēnī_ influenced each other.

[133] So _bĭbuit_ > _bec_, _debuit_ > _dec_.

[134] So _cognōvit_ > _conoc_, _mōvit_ > _moc_.

[135] So ✱_cŏcuit_ > _coc_, _jacuit_ > _iac_, ✱_nascuit_ > _nasc_, ✱_pa(s)cuit_ > _pac_, _placuit_ > _plac_, _tacuit_ > _tac_, ✱_tescuit_ > _tesc_, ✱_vĭncuit_ > _venc_, ✱_vīscuit_ > _visc_.

[136] So _caluit_ > _calc_, ✱_tŏluit_ > _tolc_, _vŏluit_ > _volc_.

[138] So _erĭpuit_ > _ereup_, _recĭpuit_ > _receup_.
