 Subroutine declarations and definitions may optionally have attribute lists
 associated with them.  (Variable C<my> declarations also may, but see the
 warning below.)  Perl handles these declarations by passing some information
 about the call site and the thing being declared along with the attribute
-list to this module.  In particular, first example above is equivalent to
+list to this module.  In particular, the first example above is equivalent to
 the following:
