We ordinarily translate both of these sentences like the first, but the difference in meaning between iubeō and imperō in the Latin requires the infinitive in the one case and the subjunctive in the other.

I.

1. Petit atque hortātur ut ipse dicat.
2. Caesar Helvētiīs imperāvit nē per prōvinciam iter facerent.
3. Caesar nōn iussit Helvētiōs per prōvinciam iter facere.
4. Ille civibus persuāsit ut dē finibus suis discēderent.
5. Caesar principēs monēbit nē proelium committant.
6. Postulāvit nē cum Helvētiīs aut cum eōrum sociīs bellum gererent.
7. Ab iīs quaesīvī nē proficīscerentur.
8. Iīs persuādēre nōn potuī ut domī manērent.

II.

1. Who ordered Cæsar to make the march? (Write this sentence both with imperō and with iubeō.)
2. The faithless scouts persuaded him to set out at daybreak.
3. They will ask him not to inflict punishment.
4. He demanded that they come to the camp.
5. He advised them to tell everything (omnia).

Note. Do not forget that the English infinitive expressing purpose must be rendered by a Latin subjunctive. Review § 352.}}
