The Pink Fairy Book, The Pink Fairy Book, part 23, sentence 16

And when the great serpent lay dead at his feet he loosed the bonds of the king’s daughter, and she flung herself into his arms and said, ‘You have saved me from that monster, and now you shall be my husband, for my father has made a proclamation that whoever could slay the serpent should have his daughter to wife.’

Who acts: great serpent, serpent, daughter, You, father, proclamation · What happens: lay, loose, fling, say, save, be · To what, where: feet, bonds, daughter, arms, me, husband · Speech: someone speaks here
