Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Marsh King's Daughter, part 6, sentence 98
The sun burst forth in all its glory, and, as in olden times, the form of the frog vanished in his beams, and the beautiful form stood forth in all its loveliness; so now, bathed in light, rose a beautiful form, purer, clearer than air--a ray of brightness--from the Source of light Himself.
Who acts: sun, form, beautiful form, swan, stork · What happens: burst, vanish, stand, bath, rise, glory · To what, where: glory, beams, loveliness, ray, light, beautiful form
