Celtic Fairy Tales, King O'toole and His Goose, sentence 3

The king, you see, was the right sort; he was the real boy, and loved sport as he loved his life, and hunting in particular; and from the rising o' the sun, up he got, and away he went over the mountains after the deer; and fine times they were.

Who acts: you, king, real boy, right sort · What happens: see, be, love, hunt, rise, get · To what, where: king, right sort, real boy, sport, life, particular
