Oriental tales, for the entertainment of youth, The Story of Almet., sentence 6

Yet I tremble lest it should be cut off; and my heart sinks when I anticipate the moment in which eternity shall close over the vacuity of my life, like the sea upon the path of a ship, and leave no traces of my existence more durable than the furrow which remains after the waves have united.

Who acts: I, heart, eternity, furrow, waves, my · What happens: tremble, cut off, sink, anticipate, close, leave · To what, where: future, vacuity, traces
