The Blue Fairy Book, Prince Hyacinth and the Dear Little Princess, sentence 33

The Prince was left quite unconsolable, and declared that nothing should induce him to go back to his kingdom until he had found her again, and refusing to allow any of his courtiers to follow him, he mounted his horse and rode sadly away, letting the animal choose his own path.

Who acts: nothing, Prince, animal · What happens: leave, declare, induce, go back, find, refuse · To what, where: Prince, princess, any, horse, animal, own path
