Grimms' Fairy Tales, Iron Hans, sentence 37

He made a bed of moss for the boy on which he slept, and the next morning the man took him to a well, and said: ‘Behold, the gold well is as bright and clear as crystal, you shall sit beside it, and take care that nothing falls into it, or it will be polluted.

Who acts: king, man, you, that · What happens: make, sleep, take, say, be, sit · To what, where: bed, king, well, gold, care · Speech: someone speaks here
