The Jungle Book, The Jungle Book, part 20, sentence 49

She knew as well as I did that if there is one thing in the world the elephant is more afraid of than another it is a little barking dog.

Who acts: Vixen, I, one thing, elephant · What happens: know, do, be · To what, where: that, one thing, little barking dog

This is a sentence of «The Jungle Book» by Rudyard Kipling, The Jungle Book, part 20. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (Vixen, I, one thing, elephant), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

Parsed by Mova, not checked by a teacher. This tree is Mova's own parse (the en model, on the CPU, when the site is built); it may be wrong.
