The Blue Fairy Book, The Master-maid, part 2, sentence 29

But when he got home to the King’s palace one of his brothers was just going to be married, and the bride and all her kith and kin had come to the palace; so they all thronged round him, and questioned him about this and that, and wanted him to go in with them; but he behaved as if he did not see them, and went straight to the stable, and got out the horses and began to harness them.

Who acts: giant, one, bride, horses · What happens: get, go, marry, come, throng, question · To what, where: palace, giant, horses, stable
