Andersen's Fairy Tales, The Little Match Girl, sentence 11

From all the windows the candles were gleaming, and it smelt so deliciously of roast goose, for you know it was New Year's Eve; yes, of that she thought.

Who acts: candles, hair, you, maiden · What happens: gleam, smelt, know, be, think · To what, where: windows, Eve
