Andersen's Fairy Tales, The Shoes of Fortune, part 3, sentence 41
You see he ought to have said that sooner; for the moment he expressed the wish his head was free; and cured of all his paroxysms of love, he hastened off to his room, where the pains consequent on the fright the Shoes had prepared for him, did not so soon take their leave.
Who acts: You, dizziness, head, pains consequent · What happens: see, say, express, be, cure, hasten off · To what, where: wish, room, Shoes, leave · Speech: someone speaks here
