Dear Mahinda,

follows.

I would connect verses 9, 10, 11, and 12 with verse 13. Thank-you for
your translation help. I will work on and submit my own translation of
verses 9 to 13 and post it in a new thread along with comments and
possible questions regarding yours. This may take a little time as I
have just started a thread on my own list regarding a passage from a
.tiikaa on the Nyaasa. I'm also involved with Kaccaayana's grammar and
its two introductory verses. Unlike the Saddaniiti, there are quite a
few helpful commentaies on Kaccaayana to draw upon.
