triumph – ( noun ) a victory or conquest by or as if by military force

i found this definition on https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/triumph

i found this word in the story of an hour “There was a feverish triumph in her eyes, and she carried herself unwittingly like a goddess of Victory.”

now knowing the definition helped because at first I didn’t understand and you might understand from the text but the definition helps you understand how strong that feeling was and how impacting it was. It just helps get a deeper understand of the word
