The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Chapter XIV. The Winged Monkeys, sentence 85

As his bride could not bear the sight of us, he called us all to him in the forest after he had married her and ordered us always to keep where she could never again set eyes on a Winged Monkey, which we were glad to do, for we were all afraid of her.

Who acts: bride, owner, Winged Monkey, we · What happens: not bear, call, marry, order, keep, eye · To what, where: sight, us, Quelala, forest, owner · Speech: someone speaks here
