Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Syntax of the Genitive Case in the Lindisfarne Gospels

The genitive is found with a large number of verbs when the action only tentatively affects the object. Such are verbs meaning: use, enjoy, try, tempt, taste, remember, forget, heed, care for, desire, expect, ask, praise, thank, admonish, rule, free from, deprive of, hinder, refuse, depend, heal, cease, lack, and need. Many of these verbs take a double object and in such cases the accusative of person and genitive of thing is em ployed, but the dative or instrumental also occurs. None of these verbs govern the genitive exclusively, it being sometimes replaced by an accusative, dative, or instrumental. Verbs of emotion employ a genitive or instrumental to designate the cause or object of the emotion.
