I've never seen a sentence conjunction used inside a sentence-as-object 
like this, but I can't see anything actually WRONG with it. I presume 
there is a preceding sentence which {'ach} is joining this sentence with.

I find the construction hard to parse. How about this: consider that the 
entire construction, made of two sentences, is itself also a complex 
sentence, so you can conjoin the complex sentence with the previous one.

In other words,

    yadda yadda yadda, 'ach maHotlaHmo' manenchoHlaH tugh 'e' vItlhoj

I find this much easier to parse, though I'm not saying it's more 
correct than yours.

By the way, {Hot} means "touch, feel," not "feel with emotions."
