Isn't shí supposed to be in the high tone, when it's a separate word, as it appears here, and not a prefix? This has been suggested by other commenters, and seems consistent with what I can see on Wiktionary, but I'd love to get clarification on this. Also, I notice this seems to be the only acceptable syntax. I recall there are rules about putting animate before inanimate nouns, so maybe there's also a rule about 1st person pronoun preceding and not following a third-person one like shimá?
