      except when followed by alone or be.]

      [Obs.]

      by positive act, or negatively, by neglecting to restrain
      or prevent.

   Note: In this sense, when followed by an infinitive, the
         latter is commonly without the sign to; as to let us
         walk, i. e., to permit or suffer us to walk. Sometimes
         there is entire omission of the verb; as, to let [to be
         or to go] loose.

               Pharaoh said, I will let you go.   --Ex. viii.

      contract; -- often with out; as, to let the building of a
      bridge; to let out the lathing and the plastering.

         other English verbs, is often used in a passive sense;
         as, a house to let (i. e., for letting, or to be let).
         This form of expression conforms to the use of the
         Anglo-Saxon gerund with to (dative infinitive) which

         elegant house in Harley Street is to let.''
         --Thackeray. In the imperative mood, before the first
         person plural, let has a hortative force. `` Rise up,

         desolate shade.'' --Shak.
