The Lilac Fairy Book, The Lilac Fairy Book, part 30, sentence 21

His words made me sorrowful and fearful of myself, which the man perceived, and added, “If thou meanest truly what thou sayest, and desirest earnestly to prove thy valour, and not to boast vainly that none can overcome thee, I have somewhat to show thee.

Who acts: words, man, thou, none, I, hunger · What happens: make, perceive, add, meanest, say, desire · To what, where: me, valour, thee · Speech: someone speaks here
