The Blue Fairy Book, The Yellow Dwarf, part 1, sentence 104

Indeed, as she spoke she fell down insensible, and when she recovered she found herself in her own little bed at home; how she got there she could not tell, but she was dressed in the most beautiful lace and ribbons, and on her finger was a little ring, made of a single red hair, which fitted so tightly that, try as she might, she could not get it off.

Who acts: mother, single red hair · What happens: speak, fall down, recover, find, get, not tell · To what, where: mother, own little bed, beautiful lace, little ring, finger, hair · Speech: someone speaks here
