The Lilac Fairy Book, The Lilac Fairy Book, part 29, sentence 37

‘Thou hast aimed well this time too,’ said the giant, as the king’s son laid his hand on her shoulder, ‘but perhaps we may meet some other way’; and though he pretended to laugh, the bride saw a gleam in his eye which warned her of danger.

Who acts: son, we, bride, eye · What happens: aim, say, lay, meet, pretend, laugh · To what, where: Thou, giant, hand, shoulder, other way, gleam · Speech: someone speaks here
