Tanglewood Tales, The Dragon's Teeth., part 4, sentence 91

He fancied it his long-lost sister Europa, now grown to womanhood, coming to make him happy, and to repay him with her sweet sisterly affection, for all those weary wonderings in quest of her since he left King Agenor's palace--for the tears that he had shed, on parting with Phoenix, and Cilix, and Thasus--for the heart-breakings that had made the whole world seem dismal to him over his dear mother's grave.

Who acts: Cadmus, heart breakings, Cilix · What happens: fancy, lose, grow, come, make, repay · To what, where: figure, long lost sister, Cadmus, palace, tears, parting
