Let's adapt your example:
Gladius Graeci nautae visuri Polyphemum tremit.
The sword of the Greek sailor about to see Polyphemus trembles.
The noun, which is now singular genitive, can be seen to have changed in the English from subject to possessive, but the preposition's translation doesn't change at all.
