The Red Fairy Book, Bushy Bride, sentence 82

But though he rubbed his eyes and did everything he could to keep himself awake it was all in vain, for the Bushy Bride crooned and sang till his eyes were fast closed, and when the beautiful young maiden came he was sound asleep and snoring.

Who acts: King, kitchen, Bushy Bride, beautiful young maiden · What happens: rub, do, keep, awake, be, croon · To what, where: eyes, everything, King
