Kvarters

• kvarter: (Danish) district; quarter

• quarters → connected somehow to triboos a few words later (tri = three, kvart = four); applied to the sky, it may refer to the four astronomical quadrants (horizon bisected by meridian); these define late morning, afternoon, evening, and early morning, depending on where the sun is; or it may imply the "four winds" (Revelation 7:1) or the four points of the compass
