You are forgetting the Q in:
A Q law' B Q puS.
A is Qer than B.
There has to be some verb of quality being used here. You don't
have one. That's why I had the problem in the first place. The
verb {Sov} is not a verb of quality, and if you meant to use
{Sov} as the noun "knowledge", then you still don't have a verb
of quality.
