Tanglewood Tales, The Minotaur., part 4, sentence 28

And O, my good little people, you will perhaps see, one of these days, as I do now, that every human being who suffers any thing evil to get into his nature, or to remain there, is a kind of Minotaur, an enemy of his fellow-creatures, and separated from all good companionship, as this poor monster was.

Who acts: good little people, I, poor monster · What happens: see, do, suffer, get, remain, be · To what, where: one, thing evil, nature, kind, fellow creatures
