The Blue Fairy Book, Felicia and the Pot of Pinks, sentence 64

Don’t imagine that you are the daughter of the poor laborer who brought you up; your mother was a queen who had six girls already, and the King threatened that unless she had a son who could inherit his kingdom she should have her head cut off.

Who acts: you, poor laborer, mother, queen, King, son · What happens: not imagine, be, bring up, have, threaten, inherit · To what, where: daughter, you, queen, six girls, son, kingdom
