The Red Fairy Book, The Three Princesses of Whiteland, sentence 41
When he arrived there he was more splendid, both in raiment and in all else, than the other King, who did not like it, and said:
Who acts: father, other King · What happens: arrive, be, not like, say · To what, where: raiment · Speech: someone speaks here
