The Red Fairy Book, Graciosa and Percinet, part 1, sentence 99

However, the Duchess thought she must be black and blue after such a beating; so Graciosa, when she was released, pretended to feel very bad, and went away into her own room, where she told her nurse all that had happened, and then the nurse left her, and when the Princess turned round there stood Percinet beside her.

Who acts: Duchess, that, nurse, Princess · What happens: think, be, release, pretend, feel, go away · To what, where: duchess, own room, nurse, Percinet · Speech: someone speaks here
