The given sentence with the punctuations is:
"But, we must find her!", I shouted.
* The given sentence is in direct speech as it has been directly quoted by the speaker.
* In such sentences, the words of the speaker need to be placed within inverted commas separately, followed by other punctuations as required.
* This is an example of an exclamatory sentence as it conveys a strong emotion so the quote should end with an exclamatory mark.
* Comma is used in places where there is a pause between words , hence we need one after 'but'.
* In the given sentence, 'I shouted' is placed at the end of the sentence and hence a comma needs to follow the quoted sentence.
