Celtic Fairy Tales, IX. Deirdre., sentence 30

I content myself with pointing out the fact that in these latter days of a seemingly prosaic century in these British Isles there has been collected from the lips of the folk a heroic story like this of "Deirdre," full of romantic incidents, told with tender feeling and considerable literary skill.

Who acts: I · What happens: content, point out, collect, tell · To what, where: myself, fact, prosaic century, British Isles, romantic incidents · Speech: someone speaks here
