Grimm's Fairy Stories, Little One-eye, Two-eyes and Three-eyes, sentence 1

Once upon a time there was a Woman, who had three daughters, the eldest of whom was named One-Eye, because she had but a single eye, and that placed in the middle of her forehead; the second was called Two-Eyes, because she was like other mortals; and the third, Three-Eyes, because she had three eyes, and one of them in the centre of her forehead, like her eldest sister.

Who acts: Woman · What happens: be, have, name, place, call · To what, where: three daughters, One, single eye, that, middle, second · Speech: someone speaks here
