<!-- .ven lang=en -->
Thus she went on and on, and journeyed till she came to the world’s end; then she came to the sun, but the sun looked much too hot and fiery; so she ran away quickly to the moon, but the moon was cold and chilly, and said, ‘I smell flesh and blood this way!’ so she took herself away in a hurry and came to the stars, and the stars were friendly and kind to her, and each star sat upon his own little stool; but the morning star rose up and gave her a little piece of wood, and said, ‘If you have not this little piece of wood, you cannot unlock the castle that stands on the glass-mountain, and there your brothers live.’

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** daughter, sun, moon, I, stars, star · **What happens:** go, journey, come, look, run away, be · **To what, where:** end, sun, flesh, daughter, hurry, stars · **Speech:** someone speaks here

This is a sentence of «Grimms' Fairy Tales» by Jacob Grimm, The Seven Ravens. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (daughter, sun, moon, I), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
