Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Porter's Son, part 1, sentence 39

One of the coats of arms, the one that belonged to her, was a very dear one; it had been bought for hard cash by her father, for he had not been born with it, nor had she; she had come into the world too early, seven years before the coat of arms, and most people remembered this circumstance, but the family did not remember it.

Who acts: one, father, lady, most people, family · What happens: belong, be, buy, not bear, have, come · To what, where: lady, dear one, linen, General, world, circumstance
