You're trying to nest lists, which doesn't work.

This is just a guess, but perhaps the error on line 16 meant it didn't
increment the line counter, so the last line number is off-by-one.  In
any case, you did the same thing here.  Get rid of the nested braces
(remember, this is textual expansion) and you should be fine.
