The Yellow Fairy Book, The Grateful Beasts(11), part 2, sentence 7

The day passed slowly, and with the evening came the little mouse and said, ‘Now there is not a single stalk of corn left in any field; they are all collected in one big heap on the hill out there.’

Who acts: day, little mouse · What happens: pass, come, say, not be, leave, collect · To what, where: single stalk, corn, field, fields, one big heap · Speech: someone speaks here
