Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., part 1, sentence 69

A people who alone in Europe preserved, not in dry chronicles alone, but illuminated and adorned with all that fancy could suggest in ballad, and tale, and rude epic, the history of the mound-raising period, are not justly liable to this taunt.

Who acts: people · What happens: preserve, illuminate, adorn, suggest, raise, not be · To what, where: tale, dry chronicles, ballad
