<br>loghaD:<br>&gt; tugh &#39;Ipvetlh Dapab DaneH&#39;a&#39;?<br>&gt; &quot;Would you like to keep that promise very soon?&quot;<br>&gt; [paq&#39;batlh, paq&#39;yav, Canto 3, Stanza 3; p.60-61]<br><br>I think you&#39;ve dropped the first word, unless your printing of the {paq&#39;batlh} is different from mine.  Mine has:<br>
&quot;How would you like/To keep that promise,/very soon?&quot;<br><br>loghaD:<br>&gt; bIleghlaH jIlay&#39;ta&#39; &#39;ej batlh jIpabta&#39;<br>&gt; &quot;As you see, I have kept my word&quot;<br>&gt; [paq&#39;batlh, paq&#39;QIH, Canto 5, Stanza 2; p.192-193]<br>
<br>I find it interesting that this is expressed as {bIleghlaH [sentence]}, rather than {[sentence] &#39;e&#39; DaleghlaH}.<br><br>--<br>De&#39;vID<br><br><br>-- <br>De&#39;vID<br>
