The Red Fairy Book, Princess Rosette, sentence 254

While he spoke the King for the first time looked attentively at the Princess, because he was sorry to see how she cried, and when he heard the old man saying that her name was Rosette, and that she had been treacherously thrown into the sea, he turned head over heels three times without stopping, in spite of being quite weak from hunger, and ran to embrace her, and untied the ropes which bound her with his own hands, declaring that he loved her with all his heart.

Who acts: Minister, sister, old man, name, spite, ropes · What happens: speak, look, be, see, cry, hear · To what, where: King, old man, Rosette, sister, sea, head · Speech: someone speaks here
