Celtic Fairy Tales, The Story-teller At Fault, sentence 154

"Now you're reasonable," said the beggarman; "and since you've given up trying to hang a stranger because he finds fault with your music, I don't mind telling you that if you go back to the gallows you'll find your friends sitting on the sward none the worse for what has happened."

Who acts: you, beggarman, captain, friends · What happens: be, say, give up, try, hang, find · To what, where: stranger, fault, you, friends, none · Speech: someone speaks here
