The Green Fairy Book, Prince Vivien and the Princess Placida, part 3, sentence 26

But at present we have not reached them, nor have you, and you know from what the Fairy said that perhaps worse things may happen to us if she is not obeyed.

Who acts: we, you, Fairy, worse things · What happens: not reach, have, know, say, happen, not obey · To what, where: King, present, us, thing · Speech: someone speaks here
