Tanglewood Tales, The Dragon's Teeth., part 4, sentence 40

Up sprouted also a great many trumpeters; and with the first breath that they drew, they put their brazen trumpets to their lips, and sounded a tremendous and ear-shattering blast, so that the whole space, just now so quiet and solitary, reverberated with the clash and clang of arms, the bray of warlike music, and the shouts of angry men.

Who acts: teeth, warlike music · What happens: sprout, draw, put, sound, shatter, reverberate · To what, where: great many trumpeters, brazen trumpets, tremendous shattering blast, arms
