Hi Nina and John:

Thank you for the answer! The passage makes more sense now. It seems too funny
to be in any sutta. I also hope that John will post his work soon!

I am now at exercise 14 passage for reading, and I have a question. What does
'paccassosi' mean in 'eva.m sammaa ti kho sahaayako sahaayakassa paccassosi.'?

Best Regards,
jaran
