Grimms' Fairy Tales, The Goose-girl, sentence 44

And when she came to the meadow, she sat down upon a bank there, and let down her waving locks of hair, which were all of pure silver; and when Curdken saw it glitter in the sun, he ran up, and would have pulled some of the locks out, but she cried:

Who acts: mother, Curdken, silver · What happens: come, sit down, let down, wave, see, glitter · To what, where: meadow, bank, locks, silver, sun, some
