Tanglewood Tales, The Pomegranate Seeds., part 3, sentence 28

But then she reflected that the sorrow of the disconsolate Ceres would be like a gloomy twilight round about them both, let the sun shine ever so brightly, and that therefore she might enjoy her bad spirits quite as well as if she were to stay in the cave.

Who acts: Hecate, sorrow, sun, disconsolate · What happens: reflect, be, let, shine, enjoy, stay · To what, where: both, that, cave
