The Violet Fairy Book, The Nine Pea-hens and the Golden Apples, sentence 46

Some servants who saw what had happened came rushing to the prince, and the poor young man went nearly mad when he heard the result of his own folly, and could only cry out that he would follow the dragon to the ends of the earth, until he got his wife again.

Who acts: servants, poor young man, man, dragon · What happens: see, happen, come, rush, go, hear · To what, where: result, dragon, ends, wife, own folly · Speech: someone speaks here
