 The Angel
by
Hans Christian Abdersen

“Whenever a good child dies, an angel of God comes down from

heaven, takes the dead child in his arms, and flies with him over all
the places the child had loved during his life. Then he gathers a
handful flowers, which he carries up to the Almighty that they
bloom more brightly in heaven than they do on earth. And God
presses the flowers to His heart, but He kisses the flower that
pleases Him best, and it receives a voice, and is able to join the song
of the chorus of bliss.” The flower grew beautifully, rose-bush, but
some wicked hand had broken the stem. The dead child said, “That
was so pitiful! Let us take it to heaven in God’s garden so that it will
grow there.”
 The Angel

Hans Christian Abdersen

The angel took up the rose-bush; then he kissed the child, and the
little one half opened eyes. The angel picked also some beautiful
flowers, as well as a few humble buttercups and heart’s-ease.
"Now we have more flowers," said the child; the angel only
nodded and he did not fly upward to heaven. It was quite still in
the middle of night in this great town. They remained still and the
angel came over a small, narrow street. There are dirty plates,
pieces of plaster, rags, old hats, and other things that is not good
to see. In all this confusion, the angel pointed to the pieces of a
broken flower-pot.
 The Angel

Hans Christian Abdersen

The earth had been kept from falling flower-pot and to a lump of
earth which had fallen out of it. The earth had been kept from falling
to pieces by the roots of a withered field-flower, which had been
thrown by the rubbish. The angel said, “We will take this with us, I
will tell you why as we fly.” And as they flew the angel started to tell
a story. "Down in that narrow alley, in a low cellar, lived a poor sick
boy; he had been troubled from his childhood, and even in his best
days he could just manage walk up and down the room on crutches
once or twice, but no more. Some days in summer, the sunbeams
would lie on the floor of the cellar for about half an hour. In this spot
the poor sick boy would sit and warming himself in the sunshine.

Then he would say he had been out, they knew nothing of the
green forest in its spring verdure, till a neighbor’s son brought
him a green bough from a beech-tree. This he would place over his
head, and fancy that he was in the beech-wood while sun shone,
and birds carolled gayly. One day the neighbor’s boy brought him
some field-flowers, and among them was one to which the root
still adhered. This he carefully planted by a fortunate hand, for it
grew, put forth fresh shoots, and blossomed every year. It became
a splendid flower-garden to the sick boy, and his little treasure
upon earth.
 The Angel

He watered it, and cherished it, and took care of it. It should have the
benefit of every sunbeam that found its way into the cellar, from the
earliest morning ray to the evening sunset. The flower entwined
itself even in his dreams, for him it bloomed, for him it spread its
perfume. And it gladdened his eyes and to the flower he turned,
when the Lord called him. He has been one year with God. The
flower has stood in the window, withered and forgotten. Even this
flower, withered and faded as it is, it gave more real joy than the
most beautiful flower in the Queen’s garden,” "But why do you know
this?" he asked. "I knew it, because I ‘am the sick little boy and I
know my own flower very well," said the Angel.

Then the child opened his eyes and looked into the glorious happy
face of the angel, and at the same moment they found themselves
in God's Heaven where all is happiness and joy. The Almighty
pressed the child to His chest, and he received white wings, so
they can flew together with the angels, hand in hand. After that,
God pressed all the flowers to His heart, but He kissed the poor
withered flower. All were supremely happy and they all graciously
sang, the God blessed child and the withered field flower that had
lain so long in the rubbish heap in the narrow, dark alley.
