Parse this sentence please.
A twitch at the controls could swerve the cat’, but the driver’s hands could not twitch because the monster that built the tractor, the monster that sent the tractor out, had somehow got into the driver’s hands, into his brain and muscle, had goggled him and muzzled him—goggled his mind, muzzled his speech, goggled his perception, muzzled his protest.
Thanks for the help, guys.

Hi,
You seem to have the idea of that. Do you also want to try to identify things like subject/object, and main/subordinate clauses?
