[Mesorah] Chana question

[Michael Hamm]

Hi, all; g'mar chasima tova.

When I was reading the haftara on the first day of RH (to myself, not for
the tzibur), there was a word I didn't know how to pronounce.  1Sh'muel
1:9 says:
     Vatakom Chana, achare ochla v'Shilo v'achare shaso,...
     (Chana rose, after eating in Shilo and after drinking,...)
or perhaps:
     Vatakom Chana, achare ach'la v'Shilo v'achare shaso,...
     (Chana rose, after she ate in Shilo and after drinking,...).

The first way has the two verbs -- ochla and shaso -- balanced: they're
then the same part of speech.  on the other hand, that's not proof that
that's the correct way of proouncing it.  Does anyone know (and how do you
know) which is right?

Thanks,

Michael Hamm
