The garden in winter: bare trees, tracks in the snow and who sleeps where, sentence 0

A winter garden looks empty, but fresh snow tells on everyone: in the morning it is like a page where the night's visitors wrote their names with their feet.

Who acts: winter garden, fresh snow, snow, visitors · What happens: look, tell, be, write, name · To what, where: everyone, names · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of the lesson «The garden in winter: bare trees, tracks in the snow and who sleeps where» of the biology course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (winter garden, fresh snow, snow, visitors), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
