N: Ko is, I would say: who. I looked up Warder Ch 12: Ko, who, masc, and
kim, neutre: what.
Who would today..etc. In other words: Who would be so foolish as to.. or: It
is not suitable to enter...

tato pa.tinivattitvaa

N:rukkhamuule: this compound interests me: is it a bahubhiihi: Warder Ch 20:
all relations are possible, thus also: roots of a tree.

palla'nka.m aabhujitvaa uju.m

> kaaya.m pa.nidhaaya parimukha.m sati.m upa.t.thapetvaa.

N: I looked up palla'nka.m: not much info. aabhujitvaa: having bent. Maybe
there is more on palla'ka.m.
pa.nidhaaya, of pa.nidahati: having the intention of? being intent to? This
is difficult.
parimukha.m sati.m upa.t.thapetvaa.: having applied mindfulness at the
nosetip? Parimukha.m is in front of, but here I am thinking of aanaapana
sati.
upattheti: here again the prefix upa: reinforcement?
Nina.
