Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, In the Uttermost Parts of the Sea, sentence 18

As from the cup of a lily, the angel rose from amidst the leaves of the Bible; and, stretching out his arm, the walls of the hut sunk down, as though they had been formed of a light, airy veil of mist, and the green hills and meadows of home, with its ruddy woods, lay spread around him in the quiet sunshine of a lovely autumn day.

Who acts: cup, green hills · What happens: rise, stretch out, sink down, form, lay, spread · To what, where: leaves, arm, walls, huts, quiet sunshine
