The Red Fairy Book, The Princess Mayblossom, part 1, sentence 12

This annoyed Her Majesty very much, and she was about to order that she should be arrested, when the witch—for she was a witch—with two blows from a wand summoned a chariot of fire drawn by winged dragons, and was whirled off through the air uttering threats and cries.

Who acts: Queen, wand, air · What happens: be, order, arrest, summon, draw, wing · To what, where: Queen, chariot, fire, air, threats
