The Jungle Book, The Jungle Book, part 16, sentence 4

When thou art old, Kala Nag, there will come some rich rajah, and he will buy thee from the Government, on account of thy size and thy manners, and then thou wilt have nothing to do but to carry gold earrings in thy ears, and a gold howdah on thy back, and a red cloth covered with gold on thy sides, and walk at the head of the processions of the King.

Who acts: Kala, thou, King · What happens: come, buy, have, do, carry, cover · To what, where: rich rajah, thee, Government, nothing, gold earrings, ears
