The foray of Queen Meave, and other legends of Ireland's heroic age, Opening, part 3, sentence 80

Returned, more lofty looked she than at morn; With more of inward gladness, yet less gay; More confident, though lost her girlish scorn In some half womanhood’s benigner ray: Smiling, she met her nurse’s smile, and then ‘Naisi,’ she said, ‘will love me!

Who acts: Deirdré, Naisi, half womanhood, nurse · What happens: return, look, lose, smile, meet, say · To what, where: Deirdré, girlish scorn, benigner ray, smile, me · Speech: someone speaks here
