The Crimson Fairy Book, The Crimson Fairy Book, part 5, sentence 93

The seventh Simon spread out his goods, and had so many curious and interesting tales to tell about them, that the princess forgot everything else in looking and listening, so that she did not know that the fourth Simon had seized the prow of the ship, and that all of a sudden it had vanished from sight, and was racing along in the depths of the sea.

Who acts: seventh Simon, many curious tales, princess · What happens: spread out, have, tell, forget, look, listen · To what, where: goods, many curious tales, everything, fourth Simon, all, sight · Speech: someone speaks here
