The Green Fairy Book, Prince Narcissus and the Princess Potentilla, sentence 7

King Cloverleaf and Queen Frivola had but one child, and this Princess had from her very babyhood been so beautiful, that by the time she was four years old the Queen was desperately jealous of her, and so fearful that when she was grown up she would be more admired than herself, that she resolved to keep her hidden away out of sight.

Who acts: King Cloverleaf, Princess, babyhood, Queen · What happens: have, be, grow up, admire, resolve, keep · To what, where: time, Queen, sight
