English Fairy Tales, XXI. Childe Rowland., sentence 58

He goes on further to identify these with the Picts--fairies are called “Pechs” in Scotland--and other early races, but with these ethnological equations we need not much concern ourselves.

Who acts: Tradition, Picts, we · What happens: go on, identify, call, need · To what, where: these, fairies, Scotland, much concern · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of «English Fairy Tales» by Joseph Jacobs, XXI. Childe Rowland.. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (Tradition, Picts, we), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

Parsed by Mova, not checked by a teacher. This tree is Mova's own parse (the en model, on the CPU, when the site is built); it may be wrong.
