Ah, of course -- what matters is whether the thing being possessed is
capable, not whether the possessor is. Thanks for the correction.

Wouldn't that be "may your empire establish"? I would have thought
you'd need {wo'lIj cherlu'jaj} for "may it *be* established".

Though unfortunately that destroys the parallelism with {quvjaj ponglIj}.

Unless one goes {ponglIj quvmoHlu'jaj}, but that sounds heavy to me.

Cheers,
Philip
