The Pink Fairy Book, The Pink Fairy Book, part 15, sentence 29

But the fox told him that above the horse’s stall hung a beautiful golden saddle, which he must not touch, if he did not want to bring himself into new troubles worse than those he had escaped from, for then the fox could help him no longer.

Who acts: fox, stall · What happens: tell, hang, not touch, not want, bring, escape · To what, where: prince, beautiful golden saddle, new troubles · Speech: someone speaks here
