Not bad work. But surely you would expect something more like the
following?

1. (title) hatsitsah le'ariyel
2. 'ariyel holeket `al haderek
3. vatishax lareyx 'et tsitsah ...

The original form of 2. would suggest that she had already walked
along the road at the time of 3, not that she was in the process of
doing so.

Also, is the use in 4 of HINNE with QATAL correct, for the next event
in a narrative? This is certainly not a common usage of HINNE.
