Grimm's Fairy Stories, Little One-eye, Two-eyes and Three-eyes, sentence 76

Her mother took them of her, but returned her no thanks; and the two sisters, instead of treating Two-Eyes better than they had done, were only the more envious of her, because she alone could gather the fruit--in fact, they treated her worse.

Who acts: mother, boughs, Eye · What happens: take, return, treat, do, be, gather · To what, where: boughs, thanks, fruit, Eye
