Grimms' Fairy Tales, The King of the Golden Mountain, sentence 31
Heinel agreed that his father must give him up, and that so far the dwarf should have his way: but, on the other hand, the fairy had told Heinel what fortune was in store for him, if he followed his own course; and he did not choose to be given up to his hump-backed friend, who seemed so anxious for his company.
Who acts: Heinel, father, that, fortune, fairy, backed friend · What happens: agree, give up, have, tell, be, follow · To what, where: Heinel, way, fairy, other hand, store, own course · Speech: someone speaks here
