Grimms' Fairy Tales, The Salad, sentence 63

Then the huntsman said, ‘Give the old one stripes three times a day and hay once; give the next (who was the servant-maid) stripes once a day and hay three times; and give the youngest (who was the beautiful lady) hay three times a day and no stripes’: for he could not find it in his heart to have her beaten.

Who acts: huntsman, heart · What happens: say, give, be, not find, have, beat · To what, where: old one stripes, next, servant maid, youngest, beautiful lady, miller · Speech: someone speaks here
