It should be noted that onov does not refer only to the third person, as
in all the previously mentioned examples, but also to the second (and
the fust) 164.

2.2.2. Without pronomen coniunctum
In the so-called "vulgar" texts of the period af ter the lIth century
I have found only the following instances of ónov denoting some kind of
genitive or dative and not resumed by a personal (or demonstr.) pronoun.
Ass. 111,11-2 ... xwel,ç flè .r/v e'tb1'JC1tv è"etvov ónov in ó roixoç ...
One may observe that it is quite obvious why ónov has not been resumed
here by means of rov or èbt"óv rov: the author must have thought that
the sense of ónov could be easily understood, because it is immediately
preceded by a genitive and because the relat. clause is not long and
complicated enough to admit another interpretation. The same can be
said of 36,19, 324,12 and 326,15. We have seen, however, in 2.2.1.1 that
this author did not always think this way: in Ass. 41,5-6 he says ... "al

va ra uwan e"etvov, It b

concluded that, if ónov was preceded by aposs. genitive, the author
did not find it necessary to use the pronomen coniunctum. He did use it,
however, if ónov was preceded by another case of è"ûvoç. There are two
cases which are exceptional, viz. 290,1-2 and 325,22, where ónov is not
resumed, although the antecedent (both times in the form of è"elvov) is
an indirect object.
The following case is quite different. The antecedent is not some form
of è"ûvoç and the relat. clause is not so simple as in the above-mentioned
instances.

163 Cf. 354,28 and 490,2.
164 Cf. 326,31-3.
