The Green Fairy Book, Heart of Ice, part 3, sentence 54

The Ambassador did not at all like being put off after that fashion, but he was obliged to be content, and only said very arrogantly that so soon as his equipages arrived, as he expected they would do very shortly, he would give all the people of the city, and the stranger Princes with whom it was inundated, an idea of the power and the magnificence of his master.

Who acts: Ambassador, equipages · What happens: not do, put off, oblige, be, say, arrive · To what, where: all, Ambassador, that, people, stranger · Speech: someone speaks here
