Grimms' Fairy Tales, Clever Gretel, sentence 24

When one of the chickens was swallowed down, and still her master did not come, Gretel looked at the other and said: ‘What one is, the other should be likewise, the two go together; what’s right for the one is right for the other; I think if I were to take another draught it would do me no harm.’

Who acts: master, Gretel, other, two, I, draught · What happens: swallow down, not come, look, say, be, go together · To what, where: one, draught, harm, me · Speech: someone speaks here
