There are three possible forms of sentence when an NP
following a compound preposition is relativized: 1) the
subject is placed after the verb; 2) the subject is
cliticized to the verb; and 3) the subject is omitted (in
context). A copy of relativized NP is optionally attached to
the preposition. Each of the three possible forms is
exemplified by (157b), (157c), and (157d) below. Unlike
single prepositions, compound prepositions are not replaced
when an NP following them is relativized.
