The Yellow Fairy Book, Hermod and Hadvor (32), sentence 17

She answered that fortune had contrived this wonderfully, for pirates had plundered Hetland and killed the King, and she had fled from the land in terror, and had come hither after great trouble, and she was the very person he was looking for, and the others were her daughter and maid.

Who acts: third, pirates, Hetland, others · What happens: answer, contrive, plunder, kill, flee, come · To what, where: fortune, Hetland, King, land, person, daughter · Speech: someone speaks here
