Tanglewood Tales, Circe's Palace., part 2, sentence 90

So the beautiful woman led the way; and the four maidens (one of them had sea-green hair, another a bodice of oak bark, a third sprinkled a shower of water drops from her fingers' ends, and the fourth had some other oddity, which I have forgotten), all these followed behind, and hurried the guests along, until they entered a magnificent saloon.

Who acts: beautiful woman, four maidens, third, fourth, maidens · What happens: lead, have, sprinkle, forget, follow, hurry · To what, where: way, green hair, shower, other oddity, these, guests
