2. WHEN REFERRING TO THINGS, memini, reminiscor, obliviscor take sometimes
the Genitive, sometimes the Accusative, without difference of meaning;
as,--

animus praeteritorum meminit, _the mind remembers the past_;

meministine nomina, _do you remember the names?_

reminiscere veteris incommodi, _remember the former disaster_;

reminiscens acerbitatem, _remembering the bitterness_.

stand in the Accusative; as,--

haec memini, _I remember this;_

multa reminiscor, _I remember many things._

3. The phrase mihi (tibi, etc.) in mentem venit, following the analogy of
memini, takes the Genitive; as,--

mihi patriae veniebat in mentem, _I remembered my country._

207. These verbs, in addition to an Accusative of the person, occasionally
take a Genitive of the thing; as,--

te veteris amicitiae commonefacio, _I remind you of our old
friendship._

a. But more frequently (in Cicero almost invariably) these verbs take de
with the Ablative; as,--

me admones de sorore, _you remind me of your sister._

b. A neuter pronoun or adjective used substantively regularly stands in
the Accusative (Sec. 178, 1, d); as,--

te hoc admoneo, _I give you this warning._
