Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Marsh King's Daughter, part 1, sentence 61

One morning, when the stork-papa was flying over the stem, he saw that the power of the sun's rays had caused the bud to open, and in the cup of the flower lay a charming child--a little maiden, looking as if she had just come out of a bath.

Who acts: stork papa, papa, power, bud, sun · What happens: fly, see, cause, open, lie, look · To what, where: stem, power, charming child, cup · Speech: someone speaks here
