Peter Pan, Chapter III. COME AWAY, COME AWAY!, sentence 3

There was another light in the room now, a thousand times brighter than the night-lights, and in the time we have taken to say this, it had been in all the drawers in the nursery, looking for Peter’s shadow, rummaged the wardrobe and turned every pocket inside out.

Who acts: light, we, three, Peter · What happens: be, take, say, look, rummage, turn · To what, where: time, this, drawers, wardrobe, pocket · Speech: someone speaks here
