The Yellow Fairy Book, The Glass Mountain(16), part 4, sentence 63

The girl’s words so inspired the Prince with confidence that he told her all his tale of woe, and ended up by asking her advice as to how he was to escape the punishment the Fairy would be sure to inflict on him when she discovered that he had not cut down the trees in the wood and that he had broken her axe.

Who acts: words, Prince, girl, woe · What happens: inspire, tell, end up, ask, be, inflict · To what, where: Prince, tale, girl, advice, wood, axe · Speech: someone speaks here
