Tanglewood Tales, The Pygmies., part 3, sentence 13

You remember how often our entire people have reposed in his great shadow, and how our little ones have played at hide-and-seek in the tangles of his hair, and how his mighty footsteps have familiarly gone to and fro among us, and never trodden upon any of our toes.

Who acts: You, entire people, mighty footsteps, Antaeus · What happens: remember, repose, play, seek, go, fro · To what, where: great shadow, little ones, hide, tangles, any · Speech: someone speaks here
