The Lilac Fairy Book, The Lilac Fairy Book, part 15, sentence 45

Now a serai, you must know, is generally just a large square enclosed by a high wall with an open colonnade along the inside all round to accommodate both men and beasts, and with perhaps a few rooms in towers at the corners for those who are too rich or too proud to care about sleeping by their own camels and horses.

Who acts: you · What happens: know, be, enclose, accommodate, care, sleep · To what, where: serai, large square, men
