Grimm's Fairy Stories, Little Red Cap, sentence 1

Many years ago there lived a dear little girl who was beloved by every one who knew her; but her grand-mother was so very fond of her that she never felt she could think and do enough to please this dear grand-daughter, and she presented the little girl with a red silk cap, which suited her so well, that she would never wear anything else, and so was called Little Red-Cap.

Who acts: one, grand mother, girl, this, red silk cap · What happens: live, belov, know, be, not feel, think · To what, where: dear little girl, girl, little girl, anything · Speech: someone speaks here
