The Green Fairy Book, Heart of Ice, part 1, sentence 32

But her care did not cease there: she resolved that he should be tried by hardships and disappointments and the knowledge of his fellowmen; for indeed she knew the Prince would need every advantage that she could give him, since, though he increased in years, he did not increase in height, but remained the tiniest of Princes.

Who acts: care, hardships, Prince, Meantime · What happens: not cease, resolve, try, know, need, give · To what, where: Prince, advantage, height, tiniest · Speech: someone speaks here
