Tanglewood Tales, The Golden Fleece., part 3, sentence 8

But in my opinion, the most remarkable of this famous company were two sons of the North Wind (airy youngsters, and of rather a blustering disposition) who had wings on their shoulders, and, in case of a calm, could puff out their cheeks, and blow almost as fresh a breeze as their father.

Who acts: remarkable, two sons, case, my · What happens: be, bluster, have, puff out, blow, opine · To what, where: two sons, opinion, wings, shoulders, cheeks, fresh breeze
