The Pink Fairy Book, The Pink Fairy Book, part 27, sentence 11

There were soft rugs and cushions of all the colours of the rainbow, and beautiful carpets that looked like the finest moss, and flowers and trees with curiously crooked branches, both green and yellow, white and red, and there were also little fountains which sprang up from the most beautiful snail-shells, and fell into bright mussel-shells, and at the same time made a most delightful music, which filled the whole palace.

Who acts: soft rugs, beautiful carpets, flowers, little fountains, delightful music · What happens: be, look, sprang up, fall, make, fill · To what, where: little fountains, beautiful snail shells, bright mussel shells, delightful music, whole palace
