The Green Fairy Book, Heart of Ice, part 2, sentence 18

This appeared to awaken sad recollections in the King’s mind, but he informed the Prince that he was called King Bayard, and that a Fairy, whose kingdom was next his own, had fallen violently in love with him, and had done all she could to persuade him to marry her; but that he could not do so as he himself was the devoted lover of the Queen of the Spice Islands.

Who acts: This, King, Fairy · What happens: appear, awaken, inform, call, be, fall · To what, where: sad recollections, mind, Prince, King, love, Bayard · Speech: someone speaks here
