Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, XIV. Night Visions, sentence 27

A slight shadow passed over her pretty mouth as she thought of this, and she knit her brows; but the smile soon returned to her lip, and joy sparkled in her eyes, for this was the morning of the day on which she and Rudy were to be married, and the sun was shining brightly.

Who acts: slight shadow, shadow, smile, joy, this, sun · What happens: pass, think, knit, return, sparkle, be · To what, where: pretty mouth, brows, eyes, joy
