Peter Pan, Chapter VII. THE HOME UNDER THE GROUND, sentence 17

Michael should have used it also, but Wendy would have a baby, and he was the littlest, and you know what women are, and the short and long of it is that he was hung up in a basket.

Who acts: Michael, Wendy, you, women · What happens: use, have, be, know · To what, where: signal, baby, Michael, basket · Speech: someone speaks here
