The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 36, sentence 91

As he ran he heard the sound of a pipe, such as only ogres of the Stalo kind were wont to use; and there flashed into his mind what the bailiff had said when they jumped the boat: 'Next time you will have something harder to do.'

Who acts: stumble, eyes, you, something · What happens: run, hear, be, use, flash, say · To what, where: sound, mind, bailiff, boat, something · Speech: someone speaks here
