Russian Folk-Tales, Opening, part 26, sentence 60

Meanwhile, somehow or other, the peasant’s field righted itself; new shoots sprang up out of the old roots, the rain poured down on them, and nourished the earth; wonderful fresh corn grew up, lofty and thick; not a weed to be seen; and the ears were so full that they bowed down to earth.

Who acts: field, new shoots, wonderful fresh corn, ears, fields · What happens: right, spring up, pour down, nourish, grow up, see · To what, where: loss, old roots, rain, earth, weed
