δανείζω. A few examples will suffice of this very common verb— P Fay 11% (c. B.C. 115) ἐδάνεισα [Θεοτ]είμῳ . . . πυρῶν ἀρ(τάβας) [ἵ (Hptov)], “1 lent to Theotimus 7} artabae of wheat, P Cairo Preis 4310 (A.D. 59) Splaxpas. .. [ds ἐδ]άνεισεν α[ὐτ]ῷ, P Oxy IIL. 48512 (a.p. 178) ἐδάνεισα κατὰ δημόσιον χρηματισμόν, “1 lent in accordance with a public deed,” 23. 5108 (A.D. Tor) ἂς ἐδάνεισεν αὐτοῖς κατὰ Savelov συνγραφήν, ““ which he lent to them in accordance with a contract of loan.” For the middle, see P Oxy IV. 836 (i/B.C.) ἀποδότωσαν δὲ οἱ δεδανεισμένοι O. τὰς τριάκοντα δύο ἀρτάβας τῶν πυρῶν, ‘‘but let the borrowers restore to T. the thirty-two artabae of wheat,” 2d. X. 1281 (A.D. 21) δεδάνισμαι τὴν τειμήν, “1 have borrowed the price,” 26. III. 471™ (ii/a.D.) ὥστε καὶ ἐπίδειξις ἣν αὐτῶι πρὸς τοὺς δανειζομένους ἃ ἔπραττεν. ‘‘ showed off to the borrowers what he had been doing (Edd.). P Flor I. 1% (A.D. 153) combines them—8paxpas διακοσίας ds ἀνείρηται ἡ δεδανισμένη παρὰ τῆς δεδανικυίης. Wackernagel 72.2.2 1908, Sp. 637, observes that the new future δανιῶ in LXX proves that itacisim goes back to the translators and not merely the scribes. Δανείζω could not make an “Attic future” δανιῶ until the last vestige of difference between εἰ and t had gone.
