Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Eventful Moment--a Most Unusual Journey, sentence 36

I can fancy what I should see in the whole row of ladies and gentlemen on the first seat, if I could only look into their hearts; that lady, I imagine, keeps a store for things of all descriptions; how my eyes would wander about in that collection; with many ladies I should no doubt find a large millinery establishment.

Who acts: I, lady, eyes · What happens: fancy, see, look, imagine, keep, wander · To what, where: whole row, lady, store, collection, large millinery establishment
