Andersen's Fairy Tales, The Shadow, sentence 9

Tailors, and shoemakers, and all the folks, moved out into the street--chairs and tables were brought forth--and candles burnt--yes, above a thousand lights were burning--and the one talked and the other sung; and people walked and church-bells rang, and asses went along with a dingle-dingle-dong! for they too had bells on.

Who acts: folks, candles, thousand lights, one, people, church bells · What happens: move out, bring, burnt, burn, talk, walk · To what, where: street, Tailors, bells
