Legends and tales of the Harz Mountains, A Historical Tale., part 2, sentence 142

Alice, who heard these reports, knowing what others did not, that Eva was not in the vaults of the convent at Gandersheim, resolved to make a visit to the Staufenburg, thinking very likely the reports of the lady in white were not simply wild mountain tales, but having some truth in them.

Who acts: Alice, others, Eva, reports · What happens: hear, know, not do, not be, resolve, make · To what, where: reports, vaults, visit, wild mountain tales, truth, lady · Speech: someone speaks here
