The Lilac Fairy Book, The Lilac Fairy Book, part 6, sentence 55

‘“Thank you,” replied the hare, balancing the donkey on her back as well as she was able, and though the legs trailed along the ground she managed to drag it to an open space some distance off, where she made a fire and roasted it.

Who acts: hare, donkey · What happens: thank, reply, balance, be, trail, manage · To what, where: you, donkey, back, legs, ground, open space · Speech: someone speaks here
