I did mean "vassal." Although the definition is officially
"open container for displaying flowers and so on," I have, in
personal use, extended the meaning to mean a container (closed or open)
that holds something important. The body is the vassal of your mind, your
soul, whatever. It's a twenty-fourth century definition expansion of a
word. Can we really be sure what the words mean three centuries from now?
