When leading the procession and carrying the cornstalks, the first line of four should be a boy, two girls, a boy; the second line of three should be a boy, a girl, a boy.

These seven must wear green robes or mantles and hold the cornstalks, with their hands draped by the mantle.

The boys must sing the songs, for the volume of sound must be full in order to produce the true effect of this impressive ceremony.
