The Green Fairy Book, Prince Vivien and the Princess Placida, part 1, sentence 5

Now the King, who thought that if she resembled her mother in face and mind she would need no other gift, never troubled to ask any of the Fairies to her christening, and this offended them mortally, so that they resolved to punish him severely for thus depriving them of their rights.

Who acts: King, Queen, other gift, this · What happens: think, resemble, need, ask, offend, resolve · To what, where: mother, face, other gift, any, King, Fairy · Speech: someone speaks here
