The Yellow Fairy Book, The Grateful Beasts(11), part 3, sentence 55

Unknown to herself the Invisible Prince had followed her, but fearing to be discovered by the Princess in the presence of others, he made up his mind to wait quietly till dark; and employed the long hours in writing a poem to the Princess, which he laid on the bed beside her.

Who acts: heart, Princess, poem · What happens: follow, fear, discover, make up, wait, employ · To what, where: Invisible Prince, splendour, presence, mind, writing, bed
