Hi: This is my homework

Hello:

My name is Tania Georgina V. G. and I`m reading "Celtic Fairy Tales" collected by Joseph Jacobs. So the fairy tale that I`m going to talk about is "Connla and the Fairy Maiden".

Connla of the Fiery Hair was son of Conn of the Hundred Fights. One day Connla was with his father and he saw a maiden with strange clothes, he asked "Where are you from", so she responded that she came from a land without conflicts, where there is not death, there isn`t offenses to god, and the land is always in holidays, where the people doesn`t grows old; they live round green hills, so people call them the "Hill Folk" . But Conn couldn`t see her, but he could hear her voice, he was so terrified because the maiden said to him that she loved Connla and she wanted to take Connla away from him, and because she offered to Connla the crown of her land.

As a consecuence Connla`s father called to his druid Coran. Conn told him the facts, so, Coran chanted his spells towards the voice, then she disappeared (and the voice too) in front of Connla`s eyes, but she had already thrown an apple to Connla.

They didn`t see her in a whole month. He was so sad, he couldn`t eat or drink anything except the apple, but when he had already eaten the apple had grown again. He had a longing, he wanted to see her again.

The last day of the month, Connla was with his father when the maiden appeared again and she began to speak to Connla. When the king heard that voice he called again to Coran. But the maiden said that Law would come so the Druid`s Magic Spells would do away.

Without remedy, Connla`s father realized that Connla since the first day when the maiden appeared, Connla didn`t speak with anybody else, it doesn`t matter if people had spoken to him. So, the king asked to him if he loved her and if he wanted to go with her and he responded yes.

So, Connla rushed away from them and jumped into the curragh, the gleaming, straight-gliding crystal canoe. Then, the king and the court, saw it glide away over the sea towards the sun, and they never saw them again and they never had news from them again.
