Grimms' Fairy Tales, 3. How Partlet Died and Was Buried, and How Chanticleer Died of Grief, sentence 59

‘If that is the ladder by which one mounts, I too will try my fortune,’ said he, and the next day when it began to grow dark, he went to the tower and cried:

Who acts: that, one, I, son, fortune · What happens: be, mount, try, say, begin, grow · To what, where: ladder, fortune, tower · Speech: someone speaks here
