The fourth method is to burn the body; but this is only practised in the case of still-born children, or such as die shortly after birth.

There is nothing to absolve." "Oh! yes, my Lord, there is plenty, though I am wondering who will absolve you for your half. Also there are rows of little angels that sometimes won't let me sleep, and that's why I can't stomach ghosts. I'd rather sup in winter on cold small ale and half-cooked pork than face even a still-born ghost."
