The foray of Queen Meave, and other legends of Ireland's heroic age, Opening, part 9, sentence 72

And God, Who of least things has tenderest thought, Looked down on them benignly from on high, And bade that bitter brine to enter not Their scars, unhealed as yet, lest they should die; And nearer sent their choicest food full oft, And clothed their wings with plumage fine and soft.

Who acts: that, scars, things · What happens: think, look down, brine, not enter, unheal, die · To what, where: God, scars, choicest food, wings
