Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, A Little Boy and a Little Girl, sentence 42

But it was not gone; it was one of those bits of the looking-glass--that magic mirror, of which we have spoken--the ugly glass which made everything great and good appear small and ugly, while all that was wicked and bad became more visible, and every little fault could be plainly seen.

Who acts: arm, we, ugly glass, that, small · What happens: not be, be, look, speak, make, appear · To what, where: one, everything, little fault · Speech: someone speaks here
