Syntax notes1 item
- 1.14.4.prneque tutorem neque specialem iudicem ipse se dare
The infinitive dare ("to appoint") takes the reflexive pronoun se in the accusative as its direct object, with tutorem ("guardian") and specialem iudicem ("special judge") acting as predicate accusatives in a double accusative construction. The nominative intensive pronoun ipse agrees with the subject praetor, emphasizing that the praetor himself cannot perform this act of appointment upon himself.
