Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen, A Great Grief, sentence 27

She had not a button--that she knew right well, and therefore she remained standing sorrowfully outside, till all the others had seen the grave and had gone away; then she sat down, held her little brown hands before her eyes, and burst into tears; this girl alone had not seen Puggie's grave.

Who acts: girl, others · What happens: have, know, remain, stand, see, go away · To what, where: button, grave, little brown hands, eyes, tears, girl
