The Lilac Fairy Book, The Lilac Fairy Book, part 30, sentence 59

Straightway we charged each other, and though I fought my best, he soon overcame me, and I was thrown to the ground, while the knight seized the bridle of my horse, and rode away with it, leaving me where I was, without even despoiling me of my armour.

Who acts: Straightway, I, knight · What happens: charge, fight, overcome, throw, seize, ride away · To what, where: each, best, me, I, ground, bridle
