The Blue Fairy Book, The Yellow Dwarf, part 3, sentence 27

I am so angry with the Yellow Dwarf and the Fairy of the Desert that I am not likely to wish to help them, especially since I constantly see your poor Princess, whose beauty and goodness make me pity her so much; and I tell you that if you will have confidence in me I will help you to escape.”

Who acts: I, Desert, poor Princess, me, you · What happens: be, not be, wish, help, see, make · To what, where: Dwarf, me, Princess, you, confidence · Speech: someone speaks here
