Irish Fairy Tales, Chapter I, sentence 12

But women have strange loves, strange fears, and these are so bound up with one another that the thing which is presented to us is not often the thing that is to be seen.

Who acts: women, thing · What happens: have, love, bind up, present, not be, see · To what, where: strange fears, these, thing, us
