Dear David,
I agree with Karl that the clauses that fit your criteria are too few to
tell us much. Moreover, several different verb forms are used with the adverbs.
For example, in Genesis 30:33, Exodus 19:10, 1 Samuel 11:10 and 20:18 a QATAL with prefixed WAW (WEQATAL) is used with MXR. I take these as perfective, but you do not accept this. Then we are back to the basics, we need to find out whether there are two or four conjugations before the clauses with the mentioned adverbs can tell us anything. In Exodus 5:8 a participle isused with TMWL and in 2 Samuel 15:20 an infinitive is used. There is no consistency in the use of verbs.
