The Brown Fairy Book, Story of Wali Dâd the Simple-Hearted, part 3, sentence 83

This freed his hands and feet, but besides the shock of the fall, they had tumbled into a bed of thorns, and he limped away broken and bruised, and groaning loudly; for when monkeys ARE hurt, they take pains that everybody shall know it.

Who acts: This, feet, breeze, everybody · What happens: free, tumble, break, bruise, groan, hurt · To what, where: hands, bed, monkeys, pains, fall
