ca + ime, I imagine :) It reminds me of "cassa", which you can't
find anywhere in the dictionaries.

/which /and these /divine / wombs /bring to maturity /in divine
/becomings / further rebirth

"and are those who, by further rebirth in divine becoming, cause
divine embryos to mature."

Rhys-Davids has "those who are bringing to fruition the course of
conduct that will lead to rebirth in states of bliss in heaven." with
a footnote: "Literally 'who are making heavenly embryos ripe for
rebirth in heavenly states.' "

Best wishes,

Yuttadhammo
