| A
sailor's wife approached
the pastor
(DO) {of her
church} just as he
was
stepping {into the pulpit},
and handed
him (IO) a
note
(DO). The
note
said[CNE],
"Harold Peat,
having gone {to sea},
his
wife requests[CNE]
the congregation
(IO) to pray {for
his safety}."
The
minister
hastily
unfolded
the
note
(DO), and
{with
his mind} {on the sermon} he
was
about (PA[Note
#1]) to make,
he announced:
"Harold Peat,
having gone to see his
wife,
requests[CNE]
the congregation (IO)
to pray {for his safety}."
