A person who agrees to serve as mediator between two warrings factions at the request of both abandons by so agreeing the rights to take sides later.
这句话里边那个by so agreeing the rights to take sides later，怎么理解啊？abandon的宾语到哪里去了？

http://www.langlib.com/qa/question/11348040这里有解释
后半句为：To take sides at a later point would be to suggest that the earlier presumptive impartiality was a sham.
翻译为：应交战双方邀请且同意为双方调解的人以后不得偏袒交战任何一方。（倘若做不到这一点，则表明先前约定的公正原则都是胡扯。）
结构分析：
A person who agrees to serve as mediator between two warring factions at the request of both（定语从句） abandons（谓语动词） by so agreeing（方式状语） the right to take sides later（宾语）.

意思是，abandon没有宾语，方式状语是：by so agreeing the right to take sides later. 是这样吗？
支持了某一方，而放弃（调停行为）？
