Cossack Fairy Tales and Folk Tales, The Story of the Wind, sentence 93

Then the Jews picked up the money, but they laid before him a table covered with all the dishes that a man's heart may desire, and they begged him to sit down and make merry, and said with true Jewish cunning, "Though thou mayst get a little lively, don't get drunk, for thou knowest how drink plays the fool with a man's wits."--The man marvelled at the straightforwardness of the Jews in warning him against the drink, and, forgetting everything else, sat down at table and began drinking pot after pot of mead, and talking with the Jews, and his little ram went clean out of his head.

Who acts: Jews, wretches, heart, thou, drink, man · What happens: pick up, lay, cover, desire, beg, sit down · To what, where: money, table, dishes, man, fool, Jew · Speech: someone speaks here
