Legends and tales of the Harz Mountains, Legends and Tales., part 9, sentence 70

The Kaiser returns the greeting graciously, and the monk lifts with great solemnity some object from the ground, again bows low before the monarch, and retires slowly to the door, seizes the hand of the astonished miner, who has gazed as in a dream at the splendour of the enchanted chamber, leads him to the green circle, which begins at once to rise, and soon reaches the summit of the mountain.

Who acts: Kaiser, monk, astonished miner, green circle · What happens: return, lift, bow, retire, seize, gaze · To what, where: greeting, object, ground, monarch, hand, monk
