Grimms' Fairy Tales, 2. How Chanticleer and Partlet Went to Visit Mr Korbes, sentence 10

When they arrived at Mr Korbes’s house, he was not at home; so the mice drew the carriage into the coach-house, Chanticleer and Partlet flew upon a beam, the cat sat down in the fireplace, the duck got into the washing cistern, the pin stuck himself into the bed pillow, the millstone laid himself over the house door, and the egg rolled himself up in the towel.

Who acts: Chanticleer, Korbes, mice, cat, duck, pin · What happens: arrive, not be, draw, fly, sit down, get · To what, where: house, home, carriage, coach house, fireplace, washing cistern
