I would also recommend
Kantenwein, Lee. Diagrammatical Analysis. Winona Lake, Ind. BMH, 1979. ISBN
088469-150-0
It has a lot or sentences that need to be re-diagrammed, but it does cover
Greek, Hebrew, and English diagramming.

Richard:
I would recommend two books that might help
Biblical Greek Exegesis by George H. Guthrie and J.
Scott Duvall. Zondervan, 1998.
New Testament Exegesis 3rd ed. by Gordon D. Fee.
Westminster/John Knox, 2002
