Legends of the Northwest, The Feast of the Virgins., part 2, sentence 7

Then, slyly she slipped from her snug retreat, And guiding her course by Wazíya's star, [62] That shone through the shadowy forms afar, She northward hurried with silent feet; And long ere the sky was aflame in the east, She was leagues from the place of the fatal feast. '

Who acts: Wiwâstè, That, shadowy, long, sky · What happens: slip, guide, shine, form, hurry, ere · To what, where: 62, course, east, leagues, place
