Celtic Fairy Tales, The Story of Deirdre, sentence 44

"Well," said the hunter, "I may do that--keep my mouth shut and my tongue quiet, since I came to the house and received hospitality from you; but by the hand of thy father and grandfather, and by your own two hands, if some other of the people of the world saw this beauteous creature you have here hid away, they would not long leave her with you, I swear."

Who acts: hunter, you, creature · What happens: say, do, keep, come, receive, see · To what, where: that, mouth, house, hospitality, beauteous creature, tongue · Speech: someone speaks here
