The descent of the sun: A cycle of birth, A Sleep and a Dream., part 1, sentence 33

And like a child she smiled at her father[9] with parted lips and half-shut eyes, casting before her through the net of their lashes the magical charm of the colour of a wet lotus: and her girdle jingled as if with joy, while the flashing jewels with which she was covered all over changed colour, as if with envy at being outshone by the play[10] of her eyes.

Who acts: Shrí, girdle, play, eyes · What happens: smile, part, cast, jingle, cover, change · To what, where: net, flashing jewels, Shrí, envy
