The Yellow Fairy Book, The Glass Mountain(16), part 3, sentence 59

Everything in the castle seemed to be made of copper, and the only inhabitant he could discover was a lovely girl, who was combing her golden hair; and he noticed that whenever one of her hairs fell on the ground it rang out like pure metal.

Who acts: Everything, abyss, only inhabitant, lovely girl, one, inhabitant · What happens: seem, make, discover, be, comb, notice · To what, where: only inhabitant, lovely girl, golden hair, ground · Speech: someone speaks here
