[1052.] In like manner a noun may be added as a predicate in agreement with a substantive in any oblique case: as,

sē incolumēs recipiunt, they come back safe. ante mē cōnsulem, before my consulship. Dolābellā hoste dēcrētō, Dolabella having been voted an enemy. nātūrā duce, with nature as a guide.

[1053.] (4.) An Adverbial Adjunct is either an oblique case of a noun, often with a preposition, or an adverb denoting ‘place, time, extent, degree, manner, cause,’ or ‘circumstances’ generally: as,

silentiō proficīscitur, he marches in silence. in eō flūmine pōns erat, over that river there was a bridge.

[1054.] A predicate substantive may be modified like the subject. An adjective either of the subject or of the predicate, may be modified by an oblique case or by an adverb.

[Combination of Sentences.]

[1055.] Simple sentences may be combined in two different ways. The added sentence may be I. Coordinate; or II. Subordinate.

Thus, in he died and we lived, the two sentences are coordinate, that is, of equal rank. But in he died that we might live, the sentence beginning with that is subordinate. In either combination the separate sentences are often called Clauses or Members, in contradistinction to the more comprehensive sentence of which they are parts.
