Peter Pan, Chapter I. PETER BREAKS THROUGH, sentence 65

It would be an easy map if that were all, but there is also first day at school, religion, fathers, the round pond, needle-work, murders, hangings, verbs that take the dative, chocolate pudding day, getting into braces, say ninety-nine, three-pence for pulling out your tooth yourself, and so on, and either these are part of the island or they are another map showing through, and it is all rather confusing, especially as nothing will stand still.

Who acts: river, first day, verbs, murders, three pence, parts · What happens: be, take, get, say, pull out, show · To what, where: easy map, dative, braces, tooth, part, map · Speech: someone speaks here
