See LASSEN Inst. linguae pracriticae, p. 299, VaraRUCI Prûkṛtaprakâça 6, 64, KUHN Beiträge zur Pali Grammatik, p. 70 sq. gives an account of the remnants of the dative in Pali, which are more considerable, than in the other prakrts, and contain both infinitives in tave and datives in °âya, especially atthaya skrt arthâya; as a rule, the pali dative serves to denote the purpose. The same process has been at work in Modern Greek, SCHINAS, Grammaire élémentaire du grec moderne, Paris, 1829 p. 90: »le gé- nitif sert de régime indirect aux verbes et remplace le datif: de pou Ju donne-moi du pain, Aéyo Toữ xpitaŭ tjy kaýle,æv je dis au juge la vérité."
