- velit juventus, let the youth have a desire for.-N.B. a. At v. 340 velit is the 'Subjunctivus Optativus." The second and third persons of the pres. subjunctive, and the third person of the perf. subj., are used in independent positive clauses in the force of the Greek Optative, i.e. to press a wish or desire." But different from this is that which follows in no. b. below. -b. The pres. subjunctive is used in independent clauses to modify an expression or assertion; yet with a force closely bordering upon that of the indicative. When thus used, it is called "Subjunctivus Potentialis"; and it may be rendered by adding to the verb "I think," "I hold," “I consider,” etc :—haud velit, by no means wishes, I consider; v. 558 [akin to Bóλoμai (= Boúλ-oμaι), “to wish"; also to Sans. root vṚI, or vṚî, or VAR, "to choose "].
