The Red Fairy Book, Mother Holle, part 2, sentence 53

As soon as Ritter Red saw that there was no longer any danger afoot, he crept down from the tree and threatened the Princess, until at last she was again forced to promise to say that it was he who had rescued her; after which he took the tongue and the lungs of the Troll and put them in his pocket-handkerchief, and then he conducted the Princess back to the palace.

Who acts: Ritter, danger, Princess · What happens: see, be, creep down, threaten, force, promise · To what, where: tree, Princess, raiment, tongue, Trolls, pocket handkerchief · Speech: someone speaks here
