Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Puppet-show Man, sentence 35
There must have been magic in it, or I should most certainly become tipsy; but that did not happen, for my mind seemed quite clear; and, indeed, a kind of sunshine filled the room, and beamed from the eyes of the Polytechnic lecturer.
Who acts: I, that, mind, kind, my · What happens: have, be, become, not happen, seem, fill · To what, where: magic, room, eyes
