  Though on some occasions the mahouts accompany the koomkies up to the saun, yet it is safer, and generally the most sure and easy mode, for them to dismount in some contiguous cover with their blankets and ropes, leading the koomkies to the saun, towards which they proceed in the most cunning style.

Saun

From Proto-Finnic *sakna, possibly from Proto-Germanic *stakkaz (“a barn; rick; haystack”), cognate with English stack, Old Norse stakkr (“stack”) and dialectal Swedish stake (“hearth, fireplace”). Possibly also from Proto-Germanic *sāpnaz (“a place of soap”). Cognate with Finnish sauna, Livvi saunu, Livonian sōna and Northern Sami suovdnji (“a pit dug in snow”).^[1]
