The Pink Fairy Book, The Pink Fairy Book, part 35, sentence 9

As soon as they had gone out of sight our hero made haste to take the liver from the place where he had hid it, threw off the skin of the old nyamatsane, and ran away as hard as he could, only stopping to pick up a very brilliant and polished little stone, which he put in his bag by the side of the liver.

Who acts: nyamatsanes, hero, made haste, haste, brilliant little stone · What happens: go out, make, haste, take, have, hide · To what, where: sight, liver, place, skin, brilliant little stone, bag
