Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, XV. the Conclusion, sentence 13

As the evening advanced, the shadows fell upon the snow-capped mountains of Savoy painting them in colors of deep blue, while their topmost peaks glowed like red lava; and for a moment this light was reflected on the cultivated parts of the mountains, making them appear as if newly risen from the lap of earth, and giving to the snow-crested peak of the Dent du Midi the appearance of the full moon as it rises above the horizon.

Who acts: shadows, capped mountains, topmost peaks, peaks, light · What happens: fall, cap, paint, glow, reflect, cultivate · To what, where: capped mountains, shadows, colors, light, cultivated parts, peaks
