So' is "hide" not "be hidden." Fine if you are, as poetry certainly permits
you to, saying that the stars have some volition in the matter. (My very
first KLBC turned into an argument about whether {So'} or {So''egh} was
correct here. Canon on page 69 says it's just fine).

{yot} is invasion. I read this as "I approach the invasions." Field is
{yotlh}. I would use a translation of {ghoS} that suggested less randomness
of direction than "I walk the fields." maghwI' ghaH mughwI''e'
