The Blue Fairy Book, Beauty and the Beast, part 3, sentence 74

Beauty, who had half expected that he would be angry with her, was reassured by his gentle voice, and went back to the palace, where supper was awaiting her; and afterward the Beast came in as usual, and talked about the time she had spent with her father, asking if she had enjoyed herself, and if they had all been very glad to see her.

Who acts: Beast, gentle voice, supper, father · What happens: expect, be, reassure, go back, await, come in · To what, where: Beauty, time
