The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault, "he Thought the Princess Was His Queen" 143, sentence 104

_It is amazing to remember that Perrault was rather ashamed of his "Histoires ou Contes du Temps Passé"--perhaps better known as "Les Contes de ma Mère l'Oye," or "Mother Goose's Tales," from the rough print which was inserted as a frontispiece to the first collected edition in 1697.

Who acts: enjoyment, Perrault · What happens: be, remember, know, insert, collect · To what, where: rough print, 1697 · Speech: someone speaks here
