   [H]e had, in fact, happened to discover his toadship just in the act of making his annual toilet. The old skin wrinkled up more and more, till it was completely divided into two halves; the toad pulled out first one foot, then another, just as a boy pulls his arm out of a jacket, until at last the feat was accomplished.
