The Blue Fairy Book, The Master Cat; Or, Puss in Boots, sentence 66
His Majesty was perfectly charmed with the good qualities of my Lord Marquis of Carabas, as was his daughter, who had fallen violently in love with him, and, seeing the vast estate he possessed, said to him, after having drunk five or six glasses:
Who acts: daughter, majesty · What happens: charm, be, fall, see, possess, say · To what, where: Majesty, love, vast estate, ogre, five glasses · Speech: someone speaks here
