Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Travelling Companion, part 1, sentence 48

Then he set to work, pulled up the high grass, raised the wooden crosses which had fallen down, and replaced the wreaths which had been blown away from their places by the wind, thinking all the time, "Perhaps some one is doing the same for my father's grave, as I am not there to do it."

Who acts: John, wooden crosses, wind, one · What happens: set, work, pull up, raise, fall down, replace · To what, where: high grass, wooden crosses, wreaths, same, cross · Speech: someone speaks here
