The Blue Fairy Book, The Master-maid, part 1, sentence 56

He said he would bear this in mind, and then he again sat in there the whole day by the Master-maid, and they chatted and talked of one thing and another, but the first thing and the last now was, how happy and delightful it would be if they could but marry each other, and get safely away from the giant; and the Prince would have forgotten both the mountain-side and the horse if the Master-maid had not reminded him of them as evening drew near, and said that now it would be better if he went to fetch the horse before the giant came.

Who acts: bridle, jaws, first thing, Prince, thing, giant · What happens: say, bear, sit, chat, talk, be · To what, where: this, mind, each, mountain side, Master maid, bridle · Speech: someone speaks here
