Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter IV. The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill, sentence 24

By this time she had found her way into a tidy little room with a table in the window, and on it (as she had hoped) a fan and two or three pairs of tiny white kid gloves: she took up the fan and a pair of the gloves, and was just going to leave the room, when her eye fell upon a little bottle that stood near the looking-glass.

Who acts: Alice, eye, little bottle · What happens: find, hope, take up, go, leave, fall · To what, where: way, tidy little room, fan, room, little bottle, looking glass
