Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Marsh King's Daughter, part 5, sentence 80

It seemed to her the hour when earth and sky would burst asunder, and all things be swallowed up in Saturn's fiery lake; but she knew that a new heaven and a new earth would arise, and that corn-fields would wave where now the lake rolled over desolate sands, and the ineffable God reign.

Who acts: It, earth, new heaven, that, lake · What happens: seem, burst, swallow up, know, arise, wave · To what, where: storm, asunder, things, fiery lake, ineffable God reign, sands · Speech: someone speaks here
