Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Bishop of Borglum and His Warriors, sentence 8

Now we are there, and roll past between barns and other farm buildings; and at the left of the gate we turn aside to the Old Castle Farm, where the lime trees stand in lines along the walls, and, sheltered from the wind and weather, grow so luxuriantly that their twigs and leaves almost conceal the windows.

Who acts: we, lime trees, twigs · What happens: be, roll, turn, stand, shelter, grow · To what, where: barns, left, lines, wind, windows
