The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault, Her With a Sauce Robert'"], sentence 91

"I have been moreover informed," said the Cat, "but I know not how to believe it, that you have also the power to take on you the shape of the smallest animals; for example, to change yourself into a rat or a mouse; but I must own to you, I take this to be impossible."

Who acts: Cat, you · What happens: be, say, not know, believe, have, take · To what, where: form, power, shape, yourself, rat, you · Speech: someone speaks here
