Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Bell, sentence 67

The whole of nature was one large holy church, in which the trees and hovering clouds formed the pillars, the flowers and grass the woven velvet carpet, and heaven itself was the great cupola; up there the flame colour vanished as soon as the sun disappeared, but millions of stars were lighted; diamond lamps were shining, and the king's son stretched his arms out towards heaven, towards the sea, and towards the wood.

Who acts: trees, grass, heaven, flame colour, sun, diamond lamps · What happens: be, hover, form, weave, carpet, vanish · To what, where: whole one large holy church, pillars, great cupola, millions, arms
