# Peter Pan, Chapter II. THE SHADOW, sentence 129

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
“Well, then, take it.”

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** you · **What happens:** take · **To what, where:** stuff

<!-- .vabout -->
This is a sentence of «Peter Pan» by J. M. Barrie, Chapter II. THE SHADOW. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (you), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

<!-- .note-en -->
**Parsed by Mova, not checked by a teacher.** This tree is Mova's own parse (the `en` model, on the CPU, when the site is built); it may be wrong.
