The passage discusses Grania's desire for freedom and independence as a woman in contrast to societal expectations of her role. It also touches on her conversation with Tiernan where he tells her the tide is high and it is time for women to go ashore.

Tiernan tells Grania that the tide is high and it is time for the women to go ashore, implying they must leave the ship. They seem to be having a discussion about Grania's role and place as a woman.

Grania expresses frustration at the limitations placed on her life as a woman. She questions why men are free while women are 'chained' and wants to feel the wind on her face and be free to go where she wants, not staying 'below'. She does not want to just be 'woman'.
