Celtic Fairy Tales, Connla and the Fairy Maiden, part 3, sentence 57

The priest put food on the table again, and they ate together, and Guleesh used after that to come to the house from day to day, and the friendship that was between him and the king's daughter increased, because she had no one to speak to except Guleesh and the priest, and she liked Guleesh best.

Who acts: priest, hunger, Guleesh, that, friendship · What happens: put, eat, use, come, be, increase · To what, where: food, table, house, one, Guleesh · Speech: someone speaks here
