Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., part 6, sentence 21

The Faed Fia of the Greek gods has been refined by Homer into "much darkness," which, from an artistic point of view, one can hardly help imagining that Homer nodded as he wrote.] at the the table of Mananan, and would never grow old, who had invented for themselves the Faed Fia, and might not be seen of the gross eyes of men; there steeds like Anvarr crossing the wet sea like a firm plain; there ships whose rudder was the will, and whose sails and oars the wish, of those they bore [Note: Cf.

Who acts: Homer, one, steeds, plains · What happens: refine, help, imagine, nod, write, not grow · To what, where: Faed Fia, much darkness, wet sea, wish, Note
