93. Compound Sentences are contracted when the coordinate sentences have :

1. The same subject: as, The moon rose and threw her silvery light upon the sea =

The moon rose

[and] the moon threw her silvery light upon the sea.

2. The same predicate: as, The wind and the waves were stillThe winds were still

[and] the waves were still..

3. The same complementary nominative: as, He neither is nor can

be a poet=

[neither] he is a poet

[nor] he can be a poet.

4. The same object :

a. Direct: as, John loves and William dislikes the sea =

John loves the sea

[and] William dislikes the sea.

b. Indirect as, John lends and William gives him a knife =

:

John lends (to) him a knife

[and] William gives (to) him a knife.

5. The same extension of the predicate: as, during the day-time owls sleep and men work=

Obs. 1. Several contractions may occur in the same sentence: as, Such birds as were to search and gather their food, whether herbs or insects, in the bottom of pools and deep waters, have long necks for that purpose. The above is equivalent to eight sentences: thus,

(1) Such birds have long necks for that purpose

(2) as [the birds are]

(3) [which] were to search their food in the bottom of pools

(4) and [which were to search their food in the bottom of] deep waters.

(5) and [which were to] gather their food in the bottom of pools.

(6) and [which were to gather their food in the bottom of] deep waters

whether [their food was] herbs

(8) or [their food was] insects.

Obs. 2. It is sometimes difficult to show intelligibly the sentences which a conjunction connects. When this is the case, the student may group the words apparently joined by the conjunction, and treat them as a compound.

TWENTY-SECOND ANALYSIS MODEL.

1. She walks the waters like a thing of life,
And seems to dare the elements to strife.
Thus on I thought
Until my head was dizzy and distraught.
Moreover, through the dancing poppies stole
A breeze most softly lulling to my soul.
3. Tell me not in mournful numbers,

"Life is but an empty dream!"
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
4. Experience must by fools be bought,
Else they'll not think they need it.

5. My life is full of weary days,

But good things have not kept aloof,
Nor wandered into other ways:

I have not lacked thy mild reproof,

Nor golden largess of thy praise.

6. He that has light within his own clear breast,
May sit in the centre, and enjoy bright day:
But he that hides a dark soul, and foul thoughts,
Benighted walks under the mid-day sun;
Himself is his own dungeon.
