Grimm's Fairy Stories, The Frog Prince, sentence 14

The Frog replied, "Dresses, or jewels, or golden crowns, are not for me; but if thou wilt love me, and let me be thy companion and playmate, and sit at thy table, and eat from thy little golden plate, and drink out of thy cup, and sleep in thy little bed,--if thou wilt promise me all these things, then I will dive down and fetch up thy golden ball."

Who acts: Frog, thou, companion · What happens: reply, not be, love, let, be, sit · To what, where: Dresses, Frog, table, little golden plate, cup, little bed · Speech: someone speaks here
