The Green Fairy Book, Heart of Ice, part 3, sentence 18

After some consideration he determined to present himself at Court; but his arrival made no stir, as his retinue was as inconsiderable as his stature, and the splendour of his rivals was great enough to throw even Farda-Kinbras himself into the shade.

Who acts: Prince, arrival, retinue, splendour · What happens: determine, present, make, be, throw, arrive · To what, where: Prince, Court, stir, Farda, shade
