Key to § 69 and 70 from Ockinga

• (1)

  Dd=i wr.t Di=i sDm=Tn Di=i rx=Tn sxr n.y nHH
  I say something great as I let you hear and let you know the nature of eternity.

  Note: The grammar does not treat explicitly the phenomenon that from an adjective such as wr, "great", one can form a substantive such as wr.t, "something great". Entry for nHH, "eternity", is missing from vocabulary; see Faulkner.

  • Zonhoven, Oefening 21, 1:
  
  Dd.i wrt di.i sDm.Tn di.i rx.Tn sxr n nHH
  ik zeg iets groots: ik zal zorgen dat jullie horen, ik zal zorgen dat jullie leren kennen het plan van de eeuwigheid

  If they descend to the earth [lit. land] as snakes, I descend in their coils. If they come out to heaven as falcons, I come out on their wings.
