Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter IV. The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill, sentence 7

Alice guessed in a moment that it was looking for the fan and the pair of white kid gloves, and she very good-naturedly began hunting about for them, but they were nowhere to be seen—everything seemed to have changed since her swim in the pool, and the great hall, with the glass table and the little door, had vanished completely.

Who acts: Alice, Rabbit, everything, great hall · What happens: guess, look, begin, hunt, see, seem · To what, where: gloves, pool
