The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 36, sentence 64

The people of Vadso were very proud of their champion, and thought that there was no one like him in the world, till, by-and-by, it came to their ears that there dwelt among the mountains a Lapp, Andras Baive by name, who was said by his friends to be even stronger and swifter than the bailiff.

Who acts: people, one, world, friends · What happens: be, think, come, dwell, say · To what, where: ears, name · Speech: someone speaks here
