The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault, Had Reserved For Himself"], sentence 28

You know, that when I was but a fool, I could, notwithstanding, never come to a resolution to marry you; why will you have me, now I have so much judgment as you gave me, and which makes me a more difficult person than I was at that time, to come to such a resolution, which I could not then determine to agree to?

Who acts: You, I · What happens: know, notwithstand, not come, marry, have, give · To what, where: resolution, you, me, much judgment
