Celtic Fairy Tales, A Legend of Knockmany, sentence 38

She then made a high smoke on the top of the hill, after which she put her finger in her mouth, and gave three whistles, and by that Cucullin knew he was invited to Cullamore--for this was the way that the Irish long ago gave a sign to all strangers and travellers, to let them know they were welcome to come and take share of whatever was going.

Who acts: bully, this, whistles · What happens: make, put, give, know, invite, be · To what, where: high smoke, top, finger, mouth, three whistles, Oonagh · Speech: someone speaks here
