The descent of the sun: A cycle of birth, A Sleep and a Dream., part 8, sentence 36

Then she bound up that wet hair into a knot, and remained all day by the pool, not endeavouring to go further: for she said to herself: Rather let me stay here to perish of hunger, or furnish myself food to some wild beast, than continue my journey through a wood filled with illusions worse than a hundred deaths.

Who acts: moonstone, me, wood, my · What happens: bind up, remain, not endeavour, go, say, let · To what, where: wet hair, moonstone, me, myself, journey, hundred deaths · Speech: someone speaks here
