The Blue Fairy Book, The Yellow Dwarf, part 3, sentence 43

“Bellissima was sitting in the wood when you passed, and saw you with the Fairy of the Desert, who was so cleverly disguised that the Princess took her to be prettier than herself; you may imagine her despair, for she thought that you had fallen in love with her.”

Who acts: Bellissima, you, Desert, Princess, Mermaid · What happens: sit, pass, see, be, take, imagine · To what, where: wood, you, Mermaid, despair, love · Speech: someone speaks here
