At the end are bars of wood, but in my day they were rotten; at the worst they can be climbed.

Then they will find themselves in the morass among thick reeds.

But they must not fire these till they have worked round to the place of the sunrise, whence the wind blows strongly.

Then they must go from spot to spot and bend down the driest of the reeds, setting fire to them.

Afterwards they can get to the back of the fire and wait till all is done one way or the other.
