The Yellow Fairy Book, The Death of the Sun-hero (27), sentence 7

They dreamt that a girl all dressed in red had come to them and said: ‘If you wish that your son should really become the Sun-Hero in deed and not only in name, let him go out into the world and search for the Tree of the Sun, and when he has found it, let him pluck a golden apple from it and bring it home.’

Who acts: parents, girl, you, son · What happens: dreamt, dress, come, say, wish, become · To what, where: girl, red, parents, son, world, hero · Speech: someone speaks here
