Also, it’s our first example of the noun {qa'rI'} “end (of corridor, tunnel, conduit, Jeffries tube, sewer, road, bridge, long field, etc.)” in a sentence AFAIK. No surprises but it’s nice to see it used in context, particularly in a non-literal translation. --Voragh From: Voragh Thanks for the translation!
