The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault, Followed the King, Who Went Up First"], sentence 94

The King's son was always by her, and never ceased his compliments and amorous speeches to her; to whom all this was so far from being tiresome, that she quite forgot what her godmother had recommended to her, so that she, at last, counted the clock striking twelve, when she took it to be no more than eleven; she then rose up, and fled as nimble as a deer.

Who acts: son, Charlotte, this, clock · What happens: be, not cease, forget, recommend, count, strike · To what, where: compliments, collation, godmother, Charlotte, clock, twelve
