Tanglewood Tales, The Pomegranate Seeds., part 3, sentence 51

Proserpina, did you call her name?" answered Phoebus, endeavoring to recollect; for there was such a continual flow of pleasant ideas in his mind, that he was apt to forget what had happened no longer ago than yesterday. "

Who acts: you, Phoebus, Proserpina · What happens: call, answer, endeavor, recollect, be, forget · To what, where: name, mind, Phoebus, continual flow · Speech: someone speaks here
