Tanglewood Tales, The Pomegranate Seeds., part 2, sentence 31

It is my opinion that even King Pluto had never been happy in his palace, and that this was the true reason why he had stolen away Proserpina, in order that he might have something to love, instead of cheating his heart any longer with this tiresome magnificence.

Who acts: fall, that, this, King · What happens: be, not be, steal away, have, love, cheat · To what, where: opinion, palace, true reason, Proserpina, order, something
