4.  From the verb “iubeo, iubēre, iussi, iussus”  “to order” or “to command”  In the second or third person  “Let him/her/it____”  Ex. “discipuli legant” “let the students read”  Negative  “ne” plus subjunctive  Not as strong as an imperative, but the speaker has some control - stronger than wishes (later) “may he rest in peace”
