III. Synthetic Sentences (with Prepositional Phrases)
The sentences below gather together most of what we have learned so far, including
vocabulary. For each sentence: 1) parse each verb, including a “basic” translation of
it, as if it stood alone without the rest of the sentence; 2) identify the case, number
and gender of every noun; 3) explain the usage of the case of the noun (e.g. subject,
direct object, indirect object, or genitive “of”); 4) for each adjective, explain how it
agrees with a noun it modies, and what position it is in; 5) provide a smooth English
translation…in normal English word order; 6) diagram each sentence (in English,
if you wish). NOTE: Two articles can occur together: the second article often is
to be linked with the noun immediately after it, while the rst article often is to be
linked with a noun following the whole construction. E.g.
1) μ
