The Yellow Fairy Book, The Witch and Her Servants(22), part 1, sentence 71

‘I am really sorry for you,’ said the beggar, ‘but if you are quite determined to brave the dangers of the forest, let me at least give you a piece of advice which will help you against these monsters.

Who acts: I, you, dangers, me, advice · What happens: be, say, let, give, help · To what, where: beggar, me, piece, you, least · Speech: someone speaks here
