Thanks Carl,
This is the statement I was looking for. Now if someone else would just
agree with me that AGWN describes a temporally antecedent action leading up
to the action encoded in hEISET' then I would chalk up one hit against the
dogma that temporal circumstantial participles always precede the main verb.
