The Green Fairy Book, Heart of Ice, part 2, sentence 66

She also was invited, but she neither came to the banquet nor received her present; but as soon as all the others were seated at table, after bestowing their gifts upon the little Princess, she stole into the Palace, disguised as a black cat, and hid herself under the cradle until the nurses and the cradle-rockers had all turned their backs, and then she sprang out, and in an instant had stolen the little Princess’s heart and made her escape, only being chased by a few dogs and scullions on her way across the courtyard.

Who acts: Queen, cradle rockers, few dogs, others · What happens: invite, come, receive, seat, bestow, steal · To what, where: Queen, banquet, present, others, table, gifts
