Furthermore, if "the element governing this festival is fire" (see above), then where is your bonfire?!
See techstocks.com In which I wrote:
So let us away to the forest, there to build a bonfire (small, please, out of respect for the wood spirits) through which we will leap together. Perhaps many of us may leap together? Oh, Edwarda, Joan, Cobalt, Rambi, do you wish to jump with us through the fire? Shall we even allow Chuzzlewit to join us? Certainly, it is a festival, why not! I, at least, dear dryad, respect your traditions. |
