The Green Fairy Book, The Blue Bird, part 1, sentence 88

The King would certainly have found out his mistake the moment they stepped into the brilliantly lighted castle, but Turritella held her mantle more closely round her, and asked to see the Fairy by herself, and quickly told her all that had happened, and how she had succeeded in deceiving King Charming.

Who acts: frogs, Turritella, that, King · What happens: find out, step, light, hold, ask, see · To what, where: King, moment, lighted castle, mantle, Fairy, Turritella · Speech: someone speaks here
