The Yellow Fairy Book, The Grateful Beasts(11), part 1, sentence 48

Ferko was no less willing to help her than he had been to help the wolf and the mouse, so he poured some healing drops over the wounded wing.

Who acts: Ferko, healing · What happens: be, help, pour, drop · To what, where: bee, wounded wing
