The Crimson Fairy Book, The Crimson Fairy Book, part 30, sentence 61

By this time day was beginning to break, and Niels thought that his folks might already be searching for him, so, instead of waiting to see what took place at the castle, he ran off to the forest as fast as he could, taking the sword with him.

Who acts: Niels, folks · What happens: begin, break, think, search, wait, see · To what, where: place, castle, sword · Speech: someone speaks here
