VARIATION OF PREPOSITIONS

[*] 1666. The preposition in the second of two closely connected clauses may be different from that used in the first clause either (1) when the relation is essentially the same or (2) when it is different. Thus (1) ““ἔκ τε τῆς Κερκύ_ρα_ς καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ἠπείρου” from Corcyra and the mainland” T. 7.33, and (2) οὔτε κατὰ γῆν οὔτε διὰ θαλάσσης neither by land nor by (the help of the, the medium of the) sea 1. 2. Cp. 1668.
