The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 6, sentence 42

At this some one fetched to her the knight of Grianaig, and when Ian had told his tale, he vowed that the maiden was right, and that his elder daughters should never wed with men who had not only taken glory to themselves which did not belong to them, but had left the real doer of the deeds to his fate.

Who acts: Ian, maiden, elder daughters, men, glory · What happens: fetch, tell, vow, be, not wed, not take · To what, where: knight, smith, tale, glory, girl, real doer · Speech: someone speaks here
