This is the first Esperanto sentence in Helen Fryer's "The Esperanto Teacher: A Simple Course for Non-Grammarians", which was, as far as I can tell, the first Esperanto textbook written for regular people in the English language.
From lernu.net:
brili (bril·i) (intr) to shine, to glow
brila (bril·a ← bril·i) brilliant, bright
So, instead of brilas being a verbed adjective, it's brila that's an adjectivized verb.
