Thereupon the eldest Fairy consulted her Book of Magic, which she always carried about with her, hung to her girdle by a thick silver chain, and there she found out at once that it was Gorgonzola who had stolen the Princess’s heart, and also discovered what the wicked old Fairy had done with it.

Who acts: eldest Fairy, Queen, chain, wicked old Fairy · What happens: consult, carry, hang, find out, be, steal · To what, where: Book, Gorgonzola
