Tanglewood Tales, The Minotaur., part 1, sentence 83

After these memorable deeds, Theseus heard of an enormous sow, which ran wild, and was the terror of all the farmers round about; and, as he did not consider himself above doing any good thing that came in his way, he killed this monstrous creature, and gave the carcass to the poor people for bacon.

Who acts: Theseus, enormous sow, good thing · What happens: hear, run, be, not consider, do, come · To what, where: terror, Theseus, good thing, way, monstrous creature, carcass
