Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., Firbolgs and Third Cycle of the Fomoroh., sentence 91

"In that fair clime, the lonely herdsman, stretched On the soft grass through half a summer's day, With music lulled his indolent repose, And in some fit of weariness if he, When his own breath was silent, chanced to hear A distant strain far sweeter than the sounds Which his poor skill could make, his fancy fetched, Even from the blazing chariot of the sun, A beardless youth who touched a golden lute And filled the illumined groves with ravishment-- *** "Sunbeams upon distant hills, Gliding apace with shadows in their train, Might, with small help from fancy, be transformed Into fleet oreads, sporting visibly."

Who acts: music, poor skill, fancy, beardless youth, Sunbeams, fleet oreads · What happens: stretch, lull, be, chance, hear, make · To what, where: soft grass, indolent repose, fit, distant strain, sounds, blazing chariot
