I think it means that each person sees themself. "ci da poi prenu cu
viska vo'a" would be the same as "ci da poi prenu cu viska da", since
I have no idea what else vo'a might refer to, and so likewise with the
"le" form. Each person seeing each person could be expressed as "le'i
ci prenu cu visysi'u", perhaps.
