The Green Fairy Book, The Enchanted Ring, sentence 90

As for the Court, to whom he had rendered such services, all he asked was the freedom to live far from its corruption; and, to crown all, fearing that if he kept the ring he might be tempted to use it in order to regain his lost place in the world, he made up his mind to restore it to the Fairy.

Who acts: Rosimond, all, ring · What happens: render, ask, be, live, crown, fear · To what, where: such services, freedom, all, ring, Rosimond, lost place
