The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault, Upon Earth"], sentence 68

The good folks were extremely glad to see their children once more at home, and this joy continued while the ten crowns lasted; but when the money was all gone, they fell again into their former uneasiness, and resolved to lose them again; and, that they might be the surer of doing it, to carry them at a much greater distance than before.

Who acts: good folks, ten crowns, joy, children · What happens: be, see, continue, last, fall, resolve · To what, where: children, home, joy, former uneasiness, money
