The author wants to know who is moving along the forest path and at the same time making their way through light and shadow. The Irish writer also asks who is walking through the through small grove. Joyce compares the latter to a spring day and adds that it seems fresh to him.
He also asks the question of who is surrounded by warm rays of sunshine and yet looks bright. The author does not understand who has the ability to shine with the innocence of his forehead.
The Irish writer cannot give a reason why the cheerful woods and meadows made the decision to wear their finest attire. Joyce does not know why they burn with gold.
In a moment he answers all of the above questions in one sentence. The author says that everything is arranged for a dignified rendezvous between his beloved girl and himself. The Irish writer considers his beloved a lovely and beautiful member of the fair sex.
