The Violet Fairy Book, Virgilius the Sorcerer, sentence 105

Soon after, the sultan received a message from his daughter that the stranger was there, and he commanded that a feast should be made ready, and, sending for the princess delivered into her hands a cup, which he said she was to present to Virgilius herself, in order to do him honour.

Who acts: sultan, stranger, sending, princess · What happens: receive, be, command, make, send, deliver · To what, where: message, feast, cup, hands, Virgilius · Speech: someone speaks here
