Andersen's Fairy Tales, The Shoes of Fortune, part 4, sentence 81

All we hear or say in a dream that is fair and beautiful is like the gold of the subterranean spirits; it is rich and splendid when it is given us, but viewed by daylight we find only withered leaves.

Who acts: All, that, dream, we · What happens: hear, say, be, give, view, find · To what, where: dream, us, withered leaves · Speech: someone speaks here
