Tanglewood Tales, The Wayside. Introductory., sentence 58

The classically learned Mr. Pringle, too, had listened to two or three of the tales, and censured them even more bitterly than he did THE THREE GOLDEN APPLES; so that, what with praise, and what with criticism, Eustace Bright thinks that there is good hope of at least as much success with the public as in the case of the "WonderBook."

Who acts: Pringle, Eustace Bright, good hope, much success · What happens: learn, listen, censure, do, think, be · To what, where: Pringle, tales, THREE GOLDEN APPLES · Speech: someone speaks here
