The Arabian Nights Entertainments, Opening, part 24, sentence 84

The vizir was at once attracted by the young man's superior air and intelligent conversation, and perceiving that he had gained much experience in the course of his travels, he said, "Ah, how I wish you had learnt some secret which might enable you to cure a malady which has plunged this court into affliction for some time past!"

Who acts: superior air, vizir, you, secret · What happens: attract, perceive, gain, travel, say, learn · To what, where: vizir, gained much experience, course, secret, you, malady · Speech: someone speaks here
