Grimms' Fairy Tales, The Juniper-tree, sentence 17

The mother loved her daughter very much, and when she looked at her and then looked at the boy, it pierced her heart to think that he would always stand in the way of her own child, and she was continually thinking how she could get the whole of the property for her.

Who acts: mother, snow, boy · What happens: love, look, pierce, think, stand, get · To what, where: daughter, heart, way · Speech: someone speaks here
