Illustrations, instances (8)
I believe the answer is:
I believe this is a double definition.
'illustrations' is the first definition.
(I know this)
'instances' is the second definition.
('example' can be a synonym of 'instance')
(Other definitions for examples that I've seen before include "prototypes" , "Things characteristic of their kind" , "Illustrative warnings" , "Representative samples" , "They illustrate general rules" .)
