Russian Fairy Tales: A Choice Collection of Muscovite Folk-lore, Chapter I. INTRODUCTORY, part 5, sentence 21

In the same way another story shows us in Russian garb our old friend the widower who, when looking for his drowned wife--a woman of a very antagonistic disposition--went up the river instead of down, saying to his astonished companions, "She always did everything contrary-wise, so now, no doubt, she's gone against the stream."

Who acts: story, widower, woman, doubt · What happens: show, look, drown, go up, say, do · To what, where: us, same way, river, astonished companions, everything · Speech: someone speaks here
