جِنْسِهِ his kind

This noun completes the pairing 'the members of his kind' and carries -hi ('his'), so it closes the second contrast group. The attached possessor makes 'his kind' the owner term of the 'of' relationship. Together with the previous word it means his peers, the people of his own sort.
