Structure and dynamics of the Bok globule B335CO maps of the Bok globule B335 are presented and used to derive its density profile, mass distribution, and rotational velocity structure. It is found that the cloud is in nearly hydrostatic equilibrium with a density profile that varies roughly as r to the -1 in the core and r to the -3 in the envelope. The observed rotation is unimportant in the force balance at the present stage of evolution.
