The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 16, sentence 65

The next time he entered the stables the two brothers managed to be in the way, and when the king praised the beautiful satin skins of the horses under their charge, and remarked how different was their condition when his grooms had first come across the lake, the young men at once began to speak of the wonderful light which sprang from the lantern over the hut.

Who acts: king, stables, grooms, wonderful light · What happens: enter, manage, be, praise, remark, come · To what, where: next time, way, beautiful satin skins, charge, different condition, lake · Speech: someone speaks here
