Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Toad, sentence 28

She had an immense desire to get to the edge of the well, and to look over; she felt such a longing for the green, up there; and the next morning, when it chanced that the bucket was being drawn up, filled with water, and stopped for a moment just in front of the stone on which the Toad sat, the little creature's heart moved within it, and our Toad jumped into the filled bucket, which presently was drawn to the top, and emptied out.

Who acts: Quack, longing, Toad, heart · What happens: have, get, look over, feel, chance, draw up · To what, where: immense desire, longing, bucket, front, stone, filled bucket
