ENGLISH
Pennies from Heaven
Once upon a time there was a poor, little, devout girl whose parents were
dead. So she was all on her own. The girl no longer had a room to live in
and at last had nothing else but a shirt, a frock, a coat and a hat.
One day a rich man gave her a bit of bread. The girl was very glad as she
hadn't eaten anything for a long time. With the bread in her hand she set
off to the forest.
On her way she met a poor man who said: Ah, please give me some-
thing to eat, I am so hungry!“. The girl felt sorry for the poor man and
gave him her only piece of bread.
Sometime later a little boy came crying to her and said: “I am so cold
please give me something to warm me up.“ Without even thinking
about it, the girl took off her hat and gave to the boy.
Without her hat, the girl went deeper into the forest. After a while she
met an old woman who was trembling with cold as she only wore a thin
holey skirt. That cut the girl to the quick, so she gave her coat to the old
woman.
Shortly after, a little girl came across her path. She only had a shirt on
and was shivering from the stinging cold. In deep sympathy for her, she
took off her frock and gave it to the girl.
Without the coat, frock and hat she went even deeper into the forest. It
was nearly dark when she heard someone faintly sobbing: there in the
middle of the forest was a little boy, his teeth chattering. As he saw the
girl, he asked for her shirt.
The devout girl thought: “It is a dark night and no one sees me and the
boy needs the shirt more than I do. So, not even doubting herself for a
second, she took off her shirt and gave it to the boy.The boy was very
glad and thanked her with all his heart.
And as the girl stood alone with absolutely nothing left, suddenly some
stars fell down from heaven. She discovered the stars were nothing else
but precious pieces of money. Astonished the girl looked at herself and
found that she was suddenly all dressed in silk. She put the money in her
pocket, happy and confident that she would never have to worry again.
She lived happily for the rest of her days.
