The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Chapter XV. The Discovery of Oz, the Terrible, sentence 36

Indeed, the Voice seemed just then to come straight from the throne itself; so they walked toward it and stood in a row while Dorothy said:

Who acts: Voice, eyes, Dorothy · What happens: seem, come, walk, stand, say · To what, where: throne, row · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of «The Wonderful Wizard of Oz» by L. Frank Baum, Chapter XV. The Discovery of Oz, the Terrible. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (Voice, eyes, Dorothy), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
