The Blue Fairy Book, The Brave Little Tailor, sentence 115

“Now I’ve caught my bird,” said the tailor, and he came out from behind the tree, placed the cord round its neck first, then struck the horn out of the tree with his axe, and when everything was in order led the beast before the King.

Who acts: tailor, unicorn, everything, order · What happens: have, catch, say, come out, place, strike · To what, where: bird, tree, cord, horn, order, beast · Speech: someone speaks here
