The Blue Fairy Book, Prince Darling, sentence 112

These words went to Prince Darling’s heart; he realized the true affection and faithfulness of his old tutor, and for the first time reproached himself for all his evil deeds; at the same instant he felt all his anger melting away, and he began quickly to think over his past life, and to admit that his punishment was not more than he had deserved.

Who acts: words, word, Darling, anger, punishment · What happens: go, realize, reproach, feel, melt away, begin · To what, where: heart, true affection, Darling, anger, same instant, past life
