Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, Holger Danske, sentence 8

On each Christmas-eve an angel comes to him and tells him that all he has dreamed is true, and that he may go to sleep again in peace, as Denmark is not yet in any real danger; but should danger ever come, then Holger Danske will rouse himself, and the table will burst asunder as he draws out his beard.

Who acts: angel, Holger, all, Denmark, danger, table · What happens: come, tell, dream, be, go, sleep · To what, where: Holger, Christmas eve, peace, asunder, beard · Speech: someone speaks here
