The Violet Fairy Book, The Girl Who Pretended to Be a Boy, part 1, sentence 108

Now during her whole life, the princess had been so carefully brought up, that she had never left the gardens of the palace, so that the sight of the hills and valleys and tinkling streams, and the song of the larks and blackbirds, made her almost beside herself with wonder and delight.

Who acts: remembrance, song, larks · What happens: bring up, not leave, tinkle, make, sight, sing · To what, where: princess, gardens, remembrance, hills
