🌲 The foray of Queen Meave, and other legends of Ireland's heroic age, Opening, part 13, sentence 180

So close that fight, their crests That waved defiance, mingled in mid air; While all along the circles of their shields, And all adown their swords, viewless for speed Ran, mad with rage, the demons of dark moors And war-sprites of the valleys, Bocanachs And Banacahs, whose scream, so keen its edge, Might shear the centuried forest as the scythe Shears meadow grass.

Who acts: you, crests, circles, scythe, Bocanachs · What happens: close, wave, mingle, adown, shear, century · To what, where: fight, defiance, mid air, swords, centuried forest, meadow grass
