Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Bell-deep, sentence 48

I became so tired, so heavy, that the beam broke, and I flew out into the gleaming Au, where the water is deepest, and where the Au-mann lives, solitary and alone; and year by year I tell him what I have heard and what I know.

Who acts: I, beam, water · What happens: become, break, fly out, gleam, be, tell · To what, where: gleaming Au, life · Speech: someone speaks here
