Grimm's Fairy Stories, Briar Rose, sentence 19

However, she was not dead, but had only fallen into a deep sleep; and the king and the queen, who just then came home, and all their court, fell asleep too, and the horses slept in the stables, and the dogs in the yard, and the pigeons on the house-top, and the flies on the walls.

Who acts: thing, king, court, horses · What happens: not be, fall, come, sleep · To what, where: deep sleep, stables
