The foray of Queen Meave, and other legends of Ireland's heroic age, Opening, part 6, sentence 72

King Conor heard, ill-pleased, and yet well-pleased, And stood, before him dangling still this thought At least then Naisi of his love is eased; And that proud minx has lost my realm for nought: Perhaps ’twere best to let old rancours pass: Kingdoms live on; but beauty fades like grass.

Who acts: King, old rancours, Kingdoms, beauty · What happens: hear, stand, dangle, ease, lose, let · To what, where: thought, Naisi, proud minx · Speech: someone speaks here
