The Blue Fairy Book, The Story of Prince Ahmed and the Fairy Paribanou, part 4, sentence 57

Follow it, and when it stops, as the gates will be open, you will see the four lions: the two that are awake will, by their roaring, wake the other two, but don’t be frightened, but throw each of them a quarter of mutton, and then clap spurs to your horse and ride to the fountain; fill your bottle without alighting, and then return with the same expedition.

Who acts: you, gate, gates, two, Lions · What happens: follow, stop, be, see, wake, do · To what, where: gate, four lions, other two, each, spurs, horse
