Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, Under the Willow-tree, part 1, sentence 80

In all Kjoge there was not a girl like her; and how graceful she looked, although her glance at first was odd, and not familiar; but for a moment only, then she rushed towards him as if she would have kissed him; she did not, however, although she was very near it.

Who acts: girl, glance · What happens: be, look, not be, rush, kiss, not do · To what, where: Kjoge, glance, deal
