Not in negative commands or entreaties is always ne; as, Ne oves terreamus, Let us not frighten the sheep.

Obs. — Some latin verbs govern the Dative, which in English take the Objective case without a preposition; as, parere, to obey; nocere, to injure; placere, to please; displicere, to displease.
