English Fairy Tales, Jack and His Golden Snuff-box, sentence 106

Very remarkable, there was a discord made in the music, and one of the little men ran up one of the organ-pipes to see where the bad sound came from, when he found out it only happened to be that the two women were laughing at the little red man stretching his little legs full length on the bass pipes, also his two arms the same time, with his little red night-cap, which he never forgot to wear, and what they never witnessed before, could not help calling forth some good merriment while on the face of the deep.

Who acts: discord, one, bad sound, sound, it, two women · What happens: be, make, run up, see, come, find out · To what, where: discord, music, one, little legs, bass pipes, little red night cap · Speech: someone speaks here
