The Green Fairy Book, The Three Dogs, sentence 36

So they returned to the capital, and everyone was delighted when they saw the Princess had returned unharmed; the black flags were taken down from all the palace towers, and gay-coloured ones put up in their place, and the King embraced his daughter and her supposed rescuer with tears of joy, and, turning to the coachman, he said, ‘You have not only saved the life of my child, but you have also freed the country from a terrible scourge; therefore, it is only fitting that you should be richly rewarded.

Who acts: words, everyone, Princess, coloured ones, coachman, You · What happens: return, be, see, take down, put up, embrace · To what, where: black flags, palace towers, coloured ones, place, daughter, coachman · Speech: someone speaks here
