‏ Revelation of John 2:21

 I gave her time ( εδωκα αυτη χρονον ). First aorist active indicative of  διδωμ, allusion to a definite visit or message of warning to this woman.

 That she should repent ( ινα μετανοηση ). Sub-final use of  ινα with first aorist active subjunctive of  μετανοεω.

 And she willeth not ( κα ου θελε ). "And she is not willing." Blunt and final like Mt 23:37.

 To repent of ( μετανοησα εκ ). First aorist (ingressive) active infinitive with  εκ, "to make a change out of," the usual construction with  μετανοεω in this book (2:22; 9:20ff.; 16:11), with  απο in Ac 8:22.  Πορνεια (fornication) here, but  μοιχευω (to commit adultery) in verse 22.
