The Arabian Nights Entertainments, Opening, part 35, sentence 19

I have no wish to weary your Highness by dwelling on the sad thoughts which accompanied my change of shape, but it may interest you to hear that the next morning my host went out early to do his marketing, and returned laden with the sheep's heads, and tongues and trotters that formed his stock in trade for the day.

Who acts: I, sad thoughts, change, you, host, tongues · What happens: have, weary, dwell, accompany, interest, hear · To what, where: wish, Highness, sad thoughts, change, marketing, stock
