Tarry Scant IMO does not mean "get out of there"

[woollybugger]

I tend to agree that while it may mean take the chest and get out of here, it may also mean something else or be used in some other way. He's telling the truth, but perhaps not all of the truth.

Other than the poem describing how to locate the Trove and one of its purposes to encourage people to get out of the house and away from electronics, is the poem designed to convey a deeper significance? Is there a subtle message you are sharing with the reader and hope they realize? ~ Seeker

No Seeker,
The poem is straight forward with no subterfuge in sight.

My interpretation of the "tarry scant"  line that I like best is:

Gaze at* starry circle** with wonder***

*but= at(L.)

**cant = circle(W.).

***marvel = portentum = wonder(L.)

The "starry circle" I went on to interpret as referring to the Milky Way. This interpretation seemed to fit in with the pics of the starry sky in TTOTC and cover of OUAW.

From this the first few words of the following line became:

Just take the chest...-> just find* the arrow*

*take = cael(W.) = find

**chest= chets(Heb.) = arrow

The "arrow" in this interpretation was a reference to the constellation of Sagitta. This constellation is situated in the Milky Way.

Depsite much effort at the time I was unable to fit these interpretations into my overarching scheme of things.

I have subsequently found a way of doing so.

Latin authors of classical times and since knew it as Canna, Calamus, and Harundo...,

 

One of many interesting things about this line of thinking is that "Harundo" is another name given for the constellation of Sagitta. The reason that I find this interesting is that another of the meanings of "harundo" in Latin is "fishing rod".

The combination of "fishing rod" and "starry sky" immediately suggests the front cover of OUAW.

Another interesting thing about the constellation Sagitta is it's association with  "Tiger".

Caesius imagined it the Arrow shot by Joash at Elisha's command, or one of those sent by Jonathan towards David at the stone Ezel; and Julius Schiller, the Spear, or the Nail, of the Crucifixion.

A nail it may be remembered is the keyword answer according to the anagram of the line : The answers I already know

I think it is more like this....

The way I found of fitting this interpretation of the "tarry scant " line into my interpretation of the poem so that it flowed easily and logically, was to revise my interpretation of the "Look Quickly Down" line.

My interpretation of the line: If you've been wise and found the blaze referred to the MOAI statue and Totem Poles in the British Museum.

For the interpretation to flow logically it seems likely that the line "Look quickly down" links to a/the British Museum somehow.

So:

Look quickly down -> look de prisa(Sp.) plumae(L.) > look i a srped lump ea -> Look for(W.) a srped clamp(W.) it(L.) -> Look for a striped monster(W.) -> Look for a striped belua(L.) -> look for a striped beast -> Look for a tiger*

*dictionary.reverso.net/french-english/le+Tigre%22

tigré , e
adj striped

www.vam.ac.uk/articles/tipus-tiger

The most obvious example of a tiger linked with a British Museum is Tipu's Tiger in the V&A Museum

In this way the interpretations already given of the "tarry scant"  and "Just take the chest" lines follow on logically as both may be interpreted as referring to a tiger(arrow/sagitta). 

 

[Bownarrow]

The idea of a Tiger being relevant receives further support from the line:

The answers I already know

The anagram of this line : The keyword answer's a nail

refer's to a nail which links the constellation of Sagitta (Arrow/Tiger) which also has been called a nail (of Christ's Crucifixion - link to Easter Island/MOAI)

glosbe.com/en/cy/answer

answer in Welsh
ateb { noun, verb masculine }

From the above, the same line may be interpreted as : The beast I already know

Since the words "striped beast" appeared in the translation of the line "Look quickly down" , "the beast" in this line may be interpreted as referring again to the Tiger.

Since both interpretations of this line refer to a Tiger, following this line of enquiry further seems worthwhile.
