The Red Fairy Book, The Princess Mayblossom, part 1, sentence 18

So all the counsellors were summoned to the palace, and when they had shut every door and window, and stuffed up every keyhole that they might not be overheard, they talked the affair over, and decided that every fairy for a thousand leagues round should be invited to the christening of the Princess, and that the time of the ceremony should be kept a profound secret, in case the Fairy Carabosse should take it into her head to attend it.

Who acts: counsellors, fairy, Fairy Carabosse · What happens: summon, shut, stuff up, not overhear, talk over, decide · To what, where: counsellors, door, keyhole, affair, profound secret, secret · Speech: someone speaks here
