Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, In a Thousand Years, sentence 31

"There is really a great deal to be seen in Europe," says the young American, "and we have seen it in a week, according to the directions of the great traveller" (and here he mentions the name of one of his contemporaries) "in his celebrated work, 'How to See All Europe in a Week.'"

Who acts: great deal, we, island · What happens: be, see, say, accord, mention, celebrate · To what, where: Europe, deal · Speech: someone speaks here
