The Blue Fairy Book, The Master-maid, part 2, sentence 34

“I think I must be mad! what do I want with this coach and horses?” said he; and then he put the horses back into the stable, and went into the King’s palace, and there it was settled that he should marry the bride’s sister, who had rolled the apple to him.

Who acts: I, giant · What happens: think, be, want, say, put back, go · To what, where: horses, stable, palace, coach, sister · Speech: someone speaks here
