Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, What the Second Mouse Had to Tell, sentence 26

One evening an ant lost herself on this tree; she had crept up the stem, not nearly to the top, but higher than any ant had ever ventured; and when at last she returned home she said that she had found something in her travels much higher than the ant-hill.

Who acts: ant, working · What happens: lose, creep up, venture, return, say, find · To what, where: working, tree, stem, ant, something · Speech: someone speaks here
