2. The Pluperfect Subjunctive of the Direct Discourse becomes:—
a) In the Active Voice the Infinitive in -ūrus fuisse.
b) In the Passive Voice it takes the form futūrum fuisse ut with the Imperfect Subjunctive.
B. THE PROTASIS. The protasis in Conditional Sentences of this type always remains unchanged.
Examples:—
| sī hōc crēderēs, errārēs, | dīcō (dīxī), sī hōc crēderēs, tē errātūrum esse; |
| sī hōc crēdidissēs, errāvissēs, | dīcō (dīxī), sī hōc crēdidissēs, tē errātūrum fuisse; |
| sī hōc dīxissēs, pūnītus essēs. | dīcō (dīxī), sī hōc dīxissēs, futūrum fuisse ut pūnīrēris. |
[322]. When an apodosis of a conditional sentence of the Third Type referring to the past is at the same time a Result clause or a quīn-clause (after nōn dubitō, etc.), it stands in the Perfect Subjunctive in the form -ūrus fuerim; as,—
ita territī sunt, ut arma trāditūrī fuerint,[[57]] nisi Caesar subitō advēnisset, they were so frightened that they would have given up their arms, had not Caesar suddenly arrived;
nōn dubitō quīn, sī hōc dīxissēs, errātūrus fuerīs,[[57]] I do not doubt that, if you had said this, you would have made a mistake.
a. This peculiarity is confined to the Active Voice. In the Passive, such sentences, when they become dependent, remain unchanged; as,—
nōn dubitō quīn, sī hōc dīxissēs, vituperātus essēs, I do not doubt that, if you had said this, you would have been blamed.
b. When an Indirect Question becomes an apodosis in a conditional sentence of the Third Type, -ūrus fuerim (rarely -ūrus fuissem) is used; as,—
