Indian Fairy Tales, Joseph Jacobs, sentence 21

The collections known in Europe by the titles of _The Fables of Bidpai_, _The Seven Wise Masters_, _Gesta Romanorum_, and _Barlaam and Josaphat_, were extremely popular during the Middle Ages, and their contents passed on the one hand into the _Exempla_ of the monkish preachers, and on the other into the _Novelle_ of Italy, thence, after many days, to contribute their quota to the Elizabethan Drama.

Who acts: Barlaam · What happens: know, be, pass, contribute, title · To what, where: collections, Europe, contents, one hand, quota, Elizabethan Drama
