Please, what is the function of the second 'it' in this sentence,


What I am looking for is the definition of those four 'darn' words in parsing terms:
it (first)= subject
is= copula
worth= nominal predicate(?)
it=???


In my 'lay analysis',

SUBJECT it
VERB is worth
DIRECT OBJECT it


subject verb predicate
preposition object-of-preposition
it is worth it

cf: It is near it.
