More English Fairy Tales, More English Fairy Tales, part 16, sentence 157

And when Coo saw the glint of the sharp, sharp sword in the hand of the fine, fine laddie come from the wars, and the weary, weary lady weeping for a sup o' milk, she reckoned she'd better hold still; so wee, wee Mannie milked big, big Coo, and the weary, weary lady with the golden hair hushed her weeping and got her sup o' milk, and the fine, fine laddie new come from the wars put by his sharp, sharp sword, and all went well that didn't go ill.

Who acts: Coo, glint, weary weary lady, wee Mannie, golden hair, fine fine laddie · What happens: see, come, weep, reckon, hold, milk · To what, where: wars, milk, weeping, sup
