How to understand the meaning of this sentence with 2 "yorokobi" (“悦び” /“喜び”) and もうかがえる (mou kagaeru ??) <O>


**When reading ,I'm confused by this sentence ,using 2 "yorokobi" (“悦び” /“喜び”)
and もうかがえる ? (The writer's using only katakana here, so I'm not sure if I
understood the meaning correctly ). Much thanks if anyone can help me find its
correct meaning o/**

Context : MC is commenting (in his mind) about a mysterious woman who's
suddenly appears next to his bed at night ,after looked at her face/eyes and
hear she speaks to him :

すると女の人の瞳により“悦び”の色が妖しく混じる。​ **この……妖しい“悦び”と、どこか“無垢”な様子もうかがえる“喜び”が入り混じったこの言葉。​**

**(my guess : "In her words mixed with pleasure/joy ,somewhere I can also see
the air of pure/innocent peeks out" ?)**




Your guess is mostly correct while your parsing is wrong. も is the particle
"also" and うかがえる is 伺える "can see", potential form of
[うかがう](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/word/%E4%BC%BA%E3%81%86/#jn-18016). So
どこか“無垢”な様子もうかがえる“喜び” is _joy in which you can also see innocence somehow_

As for the second sentence, it is a long noun phrase where この言葉 is modified by
the preceding この....混じった. With A=この....妖しい"悦び" and B=どこか..."喜び", it is _Those
words where A and B are mixed_. (Or the starting この can be understood as a
duplicate of この of the last この言葉 and A=妖しい“悦び”.)

On the difference of 喜び/悦び, usually in the modern usage, the former means
neutrally "joy/happiness" whereas the latter often has the connotation of
ecstasy. So, for example, おもちゃをもらった子供が悦んでいる usually looks odd. I've heard this
kind of distinction is generally/historically not well founded, though.
