The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 37, sentence 86

'Sire,' answered the attendant, when the king inquired what was the matter, 'the noise you heard was caused by a young man from the town, who has had the impudence to come here to ask if he may measure your majesty's foot, so as to make you another slipper in place of the lost one.'

Who acts: Sire, king, you, young man, town · What happens: answer, inquire, be, hear, cause, have · To what, where: attendant, matter, noise, impudence, foot, slipper
