Russian Folk-Tales, Opening, part 35, sentence 52

So they waited until the morning, and then when dinner-time came round the old man said: “Well, master, get as many tubs as you can, and stand them round the well and fill them all full of beer, and then call every one in to drink, and you shall have a really riotous feast.”

Who acts: things, dinner time, old man, you · What happens: wait, come round, say, get, stand, fill · To what, where: master, tubs, one, riotous feast · Speech: someone speaks here
