So when the youth got home again he too related all that had happened to him, and he too said that he had gone out in search of a place once, but that never would he do it again.

Who acts: youth, that, King · What happens: get, happen, say, go out, not do, search · To what, where: King, search, place · Speech: someone speaks here
