The Red Fairy Book, Princess Rosette, sentence 259

The nurse restored to Rosette all her dresses and jewels, and the bushel of gold pieces; the wedding was held at once, and they all lived happily ever after—even to Frisk, who enjoyed the greatest luxury, and never had anything worse than the wing of a partridge for dinner all the rest of his life.

Who acts: nurse, dresses, Frisk · What happens: restore, rosette, hold, live, enjoy, not have · To what, where: dresses, wedding, greatest luxury, anything
