and the lamps
A lamp or lamp-stand, an object used for producing light by burning oil; by extension, the light emitted by such an object. In some contexts, a symbol or emblem of prosperity, life, or posterity. Occasionally can refer to daylight or brightness more generally, though primary usage denotes a physical implement for illumination (lamp, lantern, or light-bearer).
