The Green Fairy Book, The Story of Hok Lee and the Dwarfs, sentence 7

Hok Lee had already amassed a good store of money as his share of the proceeds of these robberies when it happened one morning on going to market that a neighbour said to him:

Who acts: it, neighbour, Lee · What happens: amass, happen, go, say, share · To what, where: Hok Lee, market, Lee, proceeds · Speech: someone speaks here
