The foray of Queen Meave, and other legends of Ireland's heroic age, Opening, part 9, sentence 68

He couched him by her side; Straight, her right wing, Finola o’er him spread: Ere long beneath the rock Fiacre she spied, Wounded yet more; yet soon he hid his head ’Neath her left wing, her nestling’s wonted place, And slept content in that beloved embrace.

Who acts: Aodh, Ere, nestling · What happens: couch, spread, spy, wound, hide, wont · To what, where: sun, Finola o’er, head, place, content, beloved embrace
