Grimm's Fairy Stories, Snow-white and Rose-red, sentence 42

Snow-White was very sad when she said good-bye to the good-natured beast, and unfastened the door, that he might go; but in going out he was caught by a hook in the lintel, and a scrap of his fur being torn, Snow-White thought there was something shining like gold through the rent: but he went out so quickly that she could not feel certain what it was, and soon he was hidden among the trees.

Who acts: Snow, White, sunshine, hook, something · What happens: be, say, unfasten, go, go out, catch · To what, where: good bye, good natured beast, door, sunshine, scrap, rent · Speech: someone speaks here
