TWO PREPOSITIONS WITH ONE SUBSTANTIVE.

1431. (1.) When two prepositions belong to one and the same substantive,

the substantive is expressed with the first. With the second, the

substantive is repeated, or its place is taken by a pronoun: as,

#contrā lēgem prōque lēge#, L. 34, 8, 1, _against the law and for the

law_. #partim contrā Avītum, partim prō hōc#, _Clu._ 88, _partly against

Avitus, partly for him_. If, however, the two prepositions accompany the

same case, the substantive need not be repeated: as, #intrā extrāque

mūnītiōnēs#, Caes. _C._ 3, 72, 2, _inside and outside the works_.

1432. (2.) The second preposition is often used adverbially, without any

substantive: as, #et in corpore et extrā#, _Fin._ 2, 68, _both in the

body and outside_.
