Peter Pan, Chapter XII. THE CHILDREN ARE CARRIED OFF, sentence 42

Elation must have been in his heart, but his face did not reflect it: ever a dark and solitary enigma, he stood aloof from his followers in spirit as in substance.

Who acts: Elation, face · What happens: be, not reflect, stand · To what, where: heart, Elation, followers
