I'm going to take this one back. The formation is apparently *[juDev 'ej
Dujvam ra'wI' DagheS] 'e' vItlhob,* which makes a compound sentence the
first sentence of the SAO.
In compensation, I'll point out an example of using a purpose clause on
an SAO: *bIQapqu'meH tar DaSop 'e' DatIvnIS*/to really succeed, you must
enjoy eating poison./ This is *bIQapqu'meH [tar DaSop 'e' DatIvnIS],*
not *[**bIQapqu'meH tar DaSop] 'e' DatIvnIS/./*
