- High resolution spectroscopic observations of the Seyfert-1 galaxy Mkn 335 are presented. This galaxy is exceptional in the sense that its broad emission lines display a strong blue asymmetry. It is shown that the Halpha/Hbeta intensity ratio changes drastically with velocity shift. It is also found that the Hdelta/Hbeta ratio varies only by a small amount from line core to the wings, and is close to the theoretical case B recombination value. It is proposed that these Balmer line ratios are produced by a medium with very high densities and a temperature of about 10 4 K. These observations are interpreted by a model with two dynamically and spatially separate components: a disk which contains the very high density material and emits ~80% of the Balmer lines in a symmetric profile and an outflowing component of much lower density which emits the blue wing and most of Ly alpha and the higher excitation lines (such as C IV lambda1549)
