(A.) COORDINATION OF A RELATIVE.
1832. (1.) When two coordinate relative sentences would have the second
relative in the same case as the first, the second relative is usually
omitted: as,
#Dumnorīgī quī prīncipātum optinēbat, ac maximē plēbī acceptus erat,
persuādet#, 1, 3, 5, _he prevails with Dumnorix, who held the headship,
and was popular with the commons_.
1833. (2.) When two coordinate relative sentences require two different
cases of the relative, the relative is usually expressed with both, or
else the second relative, which is usually nominative or accusative, is
omitted, or #is#, #hīc#, #ille#, or #īdem#, is substituted for it: as,
(_a._) #cūr loquimur dē eō hoste, quī iam fatētur sē esse hostem, et
quem nōn timeō?# _C._ 2, 17, _why am I talking about an enemy who admits
himself he is an enemy, and whom I do not fear?_ (_b._) #Bocchus cum
peditibus, quōs Volux addūxerat, neque in priōre pugnā adfuerant#, S.
_I._ 101, 5, _Bocchus with the infantry whom Volux had brought up, and
who had not been engaged in the first skirmish_. (_c._) #Viriāthus, quem
C. Laelius frēgit, ferōcitātemque eius repressit#, _Off._ 2, 40,
_Viriathus, whom Laelius crushed, and curbed his fiery soul_. This last
use is chiefly limited to old Latin, Cicero, and Lucretius.
(B.) SUBORDINATION OF A RELATIVE.
1834. A sentence consisting of a main and a relative member, may be
further modified by a more specific relative sentence: as,
#proximī sunt Germānīs quī trāns Rhēnum incolunt# (general), #quibuscum
continenter bellum gerunt# (specific), 1, 1, 3, _they are nearest to the
Germans that live beyond the Rhine, with whom they carry on
uninterrupted hostilities_. #īdem artifex Cupīdinem fēcit illum quī est
Thespiīs# (general), #propter quem Thespiae vīsuntur# (specific), _V._
4, 4, _the selfsame artist made the world-renowned Cupid at Thespiae,
which is the attraction for tourists in Thespiae_.
