Grimm's Fairy Stories, The Three Little Men in the Wood, sentence 14

Once, in the winter-time, when the river was frozen as hard as a stone, and hill and valley were covered with snow, the woman made a cloak of paper, and called the maiden to her and said, "Put on this cloak, and go away into the wood to fetch me a little basketful of strawberries, for I have a wish for some."

Who acts: woman · What happens: freeze, cover, make, call, say, put · To what, where: river, hill, cloak, maiden, woman, wood · Speech: someone speaks here
