Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, A Story From the Sand-hills, part 5, sentence 67

But life did not depart from him--the thread would not break, but the thread of memory was severed; the thread of his mind had been cut through, and what was still more grievous, a body remained--a living healthy body that wandered about like a troubled spirit.

Who acts: life, thread, living healthy body, Jurgen · What happens: not depart, not break, sever, cut, be, remain · To what, where: thread, body
