What are nested prepositional phrases?

A second prepositional phrase in a sentence that modifies part of the first prepositional phrase. There can also be a third nested prepositional phrase that modifies part of the second prepositional phrase, and so on. For example: Mary ran (to the end (of the street.)) The first prepositional phrase is "to the end" and the second prepositional phrase is "of the street" where "of the street" modifies "end" so "of the street" is a nested prepositional phrase. I am excited (for the birthday party (for Ashley.))

Mary ran in the morning.
