The Book of Dragons, The Fiery Dragon], sentence 61

For the dragon--instead of behaving as a quarry should, and running away--ran straight at the pack, and the Prince, on his elephant, had the mortification of seeing his prize pack swallowed up one by one in the twinkling of an eye, by the dragon they had come out to hunt.

Who acts: dragon, Prince, mortification, Tantivy · What happens: behave, run away, run, have, see, swallow up · To what, where: pack, mortification, prize pack, one
