"English Grammar in Familiar Lectures"

"
3. _Either_--_or_; as, "I will _either_ send it, _or_ bring it myself."
4. _Neither--nor_; as, "_Neither_ thou _nor_ I can comprehend it."
5. _As_--_as_; as, "She is _as_ amiable _as_ her sister."
6. _As_--_so_; as, "_As_ the stars, _so_ shall thy seed be."
7. _So_--_as_; as, "To see thy glory, _so as_ I have seen thee in the
sanctuary."
8. _So_--_that_; as, "He became _so_ vain, _that_ everyone disliked
him."
NOTES.
1. Some conjunctions are used to connect simple _sentences_ only,
and form them into compound _sentences_; such as, further, again,
besides, &c. Others are employed to connect simple _members_ only,
so as to make them compound _members_; such as, than, lest, unless,
that, so that, if, though, yet, because, as well as, &c. But, and,
therefore, or, nor, for, &c., connect either whole sentences, or
simple members.
2. Relative pronouns, as well as conjunctions, serve to connect
sentences; as, "Blessed is the man _who_ feareth the Lord, _and_
keepeth his commandments."
