Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, Little Tuk, sentence 10

So Tuk ran across quickly, and helped her, but when he came back into the room it was quite dark, and there was not a word said about a light, so he was obliged to go to bed on his little truckle bedstead, and there he lay and thought of his geography lesson, and of Zealand, and of all the master had told him.

Who acts: Tuk, room · What happens: run, help, come back, be, not be, say · To what, where: woman, room, dark word, Tuk, little truckle bedstead · Speech: someone speaks here
