Russian Folk-Tales, Opening, part 20, sentence 57

And Marýshko Paránov came to Alyósha Popóvich and said: “God must be your judge, Alyósha Popóvich: you would not give me your steel knife; I should have carved out the white breast from that pagan thief, should have gouged out his bright eyes, and I should have taken out his mettlesome heart and gazed on it.

Who acts: Marýshko, God, you · What happens: come, say, be, not give, carve out, gouge out · To what, where: Alyósha, judge, steel knife, Marýshko, white breast, pagan thief · Speech: someone speaks here
