--Notice that these forms of the pronouns--_I, we, thou, he, she,
ye, they_, and _who_--are never used as object complements or as principal
words in prepositional phrases; and that _me, us, thee, him, her, them_,
and _whom_ are never used as subjects or as attribute complements of
sentences.
+Direction+.--_Compose sentences in which each of the following verbs shall
have two complements--the one an object complement, the other an objective
complement:_--
Let some object complements be pronouns, and let some objective complements
be introduced by _as_.
+Model+.--They call _me chief_. We regard composition _as_ very
_important_.
Make, appoint, consider, choose, call.

LESSON 33.
NOUNS AS ADJECTIVE MODIFIERS.
+Introductory Hints+.--_Solomon's temple was destroyed. Solomon's_ limits
_temple_ by telling what or whose temple is spoken of, and is therefore a
modifier of _temple_.
The relation of Solomon to the temple is expressed by the apostrophe and
_s_ ('_s_) added to the noun _Solomon_. When _s_ has been added to the noun
to denote more than one, this relation of possession is expressed by the
apostrophe alone ('); as, _boys'_ hats. This same relation of possession
may be expressed by the preposition _of_; _Solomon's_ temple = the temple
_of Solomon_.
