Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, A Story From the Sand-hills, part 4, sentence 49

No music could have touched his heart as did these sounds of the sea--the rolling sea, the boundless sea, on which a man can be borne across the world before the wind, carrying his own house with him wherever he goes, just as the snail carries its home even into a strange country.

Who acts: man, snail · What happens: touch, do, roll, bear, carry, go · To what, where: music, sounds, man, own house, home
