You light the Candle first. You don’t light matches you strike a match. So you strike the match and then light the candle then the lamp and then either could be lit with the candle.

celestine, not only a matchbox can light a match, anything with a rigid surface could work, Bricks work great, Sandpaper could work.

No you only “strike” a match in order to light the match. So you light the match first.
