English Folk Verse (c.1870) - The Fifth of November Remember, remember! The fifth of November, The Gunpowder treason and plot; I know of no reason Why the Gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot!

But, by God's providence, him they catch, With a dark lantern, lighting a match! A stick and a stake...
This reminds me of a story about having a glimps of heaven, you see enough to make you want to see more. The maker however only lets you see enough, to let you know that there is something bigger and better waiting.Bowledover.
