  {190}
  { At the same time, that man, having soaked the band in blood and dark poison struggles with hands to tear apart the knots, }
  { \begin{enumerate}
  	\item This is the ``middle voice'' again. Take perfund\={o}/perfundere/perfud\={\i}/perf\={u}sus. Take perf\={u}sus: perfect,
    passive participle ``having been soaked.'' In latin we do not have perfect active participles, therefore it is hard for verbs
    to take a direct object. Sometimes you want to use a perfect sense, but have it take a direct object. Most verbs cannot take a
    DO when they are in the perfect. Stealing from Greek, it keeps the perfect, but allows it to take a direct object; thus
    ``having soaked.'' The sense ``having \emph{x}-ed for himself'' then ``having \emph{been }\emph{x}-ed with respect to.'' This
    sounds weird. Thus make it ``having soaked the bands.''
		\item manus...juvenem revinctum :  ``the youth having been tied up in respect his hands''
		\item havinrg had something done to you, or having done something to yourself
