Peter Pan, Chapter VIII. THE MERMAIDS’ LAGOON, sentence 5

You must not think from this that the mermaids were on friendly terms with them: on the contrary, it was among Wendy’s lasting regrets that all the time she was on the island she never had a civil word from one of them.

Who acts: You, mermaids, most, that, Wendy · What happens: not think, be, last, not have · To what, where: this, friendly terms, island, civil word · Speech: someone speaks here
