Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, The Girl Who Trod on the Loaf, sentence 32

But she had forgotten how soiled her clothes had become while in the Marsh Woman's brewery, and that they were covered with mud; a snake had also fastened itself in her hair, and hung down her back, while from each fold in her dress a great toad peeped out and croaked like an asthmatic poodle.

Who acts: punishment, clothes · What happens: forget, soil, become, cover, fasten, hang down · To what, where: Woman brewery, clothes, snake, hair, back, fold · Speech: someone speaks here
