having kindled
| Morphological Notes | Gr,V,PAA,NMP = Verb, Aorist Active Participle, Nominative Masculine Plural. The participle is circumstantial, describing masculine plural subjects who performed the action prior to the main verb. |
| Rendering Rationale | The participle form conveys a completed action prior to the main verb, reflected by "having kindled." The aorist tense expresses a simple, whole action, and the active voice shows the subjects themselves performed the act of igniting, preserving the root sense of setting something aflame. |
