Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, XI. the Cousin, sentence 15

All this was not right in Babette, but she was only nineteen years of age, and she did not reflect on what she did, neither did she think that her conduct would appear to the young Englishman as light, and not even becoming the modest and much-loved daughter of the miller.

Who acts: this, she, conduct, her · What happens: not be, be, not reflect, do, think, appear · To what, where: Babette, nineteen years, modest loved daughter · Speech: someone speaks here
