Andersen's Fairy Tales, The Old House, sentence 76

“I saw you all over there at home so distinctly, as if you really were here; it was again that Sunday morning; all you children stood before the table and sung your Psalms, as you do every morning.

Who acts: pewter soldier, you, visit, children · What happens: see, be, child, stand, sing, do · To what, where: you, Sunday morning, table, Psalms
