Grimms' Fairy Tales, Old Sultan, sentence 8

Now do you lie down close by the child, and pretend to be watching it, and I will come out of the wood and run away with it; you must run after me as fast as you can, and I will let it drop; then you may carry it back, and they will think you have saved their child, and will be so thankful to you that they will take care of you as long as you live.’

Who acts: you, I, child, sorrows · What happens: lie down, pretend, watch, come out, run away, run · To what, where: child, you, care · Speech: someone speaks here
