Comment - line 8: nA HD(.w) nA pr.t.w - lit.: "the silver (and) the grain" - line 9: nA AH.w Arly nA AH.w tgy: both articles (nA) are missing in the translation - line 9: r-wn-nAw iw=w mHt n-im=w: aligning the corresponding words is a little bit different in that case -> we have a relative clause in the past tense which begins with the converter r-wn-nAw (the tense is included!), the subject (iw=w) follows, then the predicate (mHt); the object of the clause is the before mentioned pA sp nkt Dr=w, which belongs to n-im=w in the relative clause.
