Found in: “ The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin
Passage: “ There was a feverish triumph in her eyes , and she carried herself unwittingly like a goddess of Victory”
Now that I understand what the word means this passage is trying to demonstrate the happiness that her eye had after regaining her freedom. Ms. Mallard felt victorious of having her life to hrself once again.
