The Yellow Fairy Book, The Dragon of the North(2), sentence 191

The King’s daughter often dreamed that her husband was going through some great suffering: she therefore begged her father to summon all the enchanters and magicians, that they might try to find out where the Prince was and how he could be set free.

Who acts: daughter, husband, kings, Prince · What happens: dream, go, beg, summon, try, find out · To what, where: great suffering, father, enchanters · Speech: someone speaks here
