Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hi, this is Stefano. Welcome to the classic children's story podcast,
Stories for Redlund Layton, anytingue to keep your little ones
entertained and happiness. We bring an international collection of stories,
Stories that teach, stories that entertain, and more. And we're
(00:24):
back with part two of Little Idis Flowers. Okay, something
to remember in our story. You might know in the
winter many of the flowers die, but as the weather
gets warmer, the sun comes out and they bloom again
(00:49):
in two beautiful, colorful flowers. Now let's continue with our
story Little Itis Flowers Partio. In the night she woke.
She had been dreaming of the student, and the flowers,
(01:11):
and the counsilor who told her they were making game
of her. All was still in the room. The night
lamp was burning on the table, and her father and
mother were both asleep. I wonder if my flowers are
still lying in Sophie's bed, she thought to herself, How
I should like to know. She raised herself a little
(01:36):
and looked towards the door, which stood half open. Within
lay the flowers and all her playthings. She listened, and
it seemed to her that she heard some one playing
upon the piano, but quite softly and more sweetly than
she had ever heard before. Now all the flowers are
(02:00):
certainly dancing, thought she, Oh, how I should like to
see them. But she dared not get up for fear
of waking her father and mother, if they would only
come in here. But the flowers did not come, and
the music went on so prettily that she could restrain
(02:20):
herself no longer, and she crept out of her little bed,
stole softly to the door, and peeped into the room.
Oh what a pretty sight it was. There was no
night lamp in the room. Still it was quite bright.
The moon shone through the window down upon the floor,
(02:43):
and it was almost like daylight. The hyacinths and tulips
stood there in two ropes. Not one was left on
the window, where stood the empty flower pots. On the floor.
All the flowers danced gracefully, making all the turns, and
holding each other by their long green leaves as they
(03:04):
twirled round. At the piano sat a large yellow lily,
which little Ida remembered to have seen in the summer,
For she recollected that the student has said, ho luck
she is to miss Laura, and how every one had
left at the remark. But now she really thought that
(03:27):
the lily was very much like the young lady. It
had exactly her manner of playing, bending its long yellow
face now to one side, and now to the other,
and nodding his head to mark time to the beautiful music.
A large blue crocus now stepped forward, sprang upon the
(03:50):
table on which late ODIs play. Things went straight to
the doll's cradle and drew back the curtains. There lay
the sick flowers, but they rose at once, greeting the
other flowers, and made a sign that they would like
to join in the dance. They did not look at
all sick. Now, suddenly a heavy noise was heard, as
(04:14):
of something falling from the table. Ida glanced that way
and saw that it was the rod she had found
on her bed on Shrove Tuesday. That it seemed to
wish to belong to the flowers. It was a pretty rod,
for a wax figure that looked exactly like the counsulor
sat upon the head of it. The rod began to dance,
(04:38):
and the wax figure that was riding on it became
long and great like the Counsular himself, and began to exclaim, oh,
can one put such stuff into a child's head? It
was very funny to see, and little Ida could not
help laughing. For the rod kept on dancing, and the
(04:58):
consular had to dance too. There was no help for
it whether he remained tall and big. We became a
little wax figure again. But the other flowers said a
good word for him, especially those that had lain in
the doll's bed, so that at last the rod left
it in peace. At the same time, there was a
(05:23):
loud knocking inside the door where Sophie Hidas now lay
with many other toys. She put out her head and asked,
in great astonishment, is there a ball here? Why? Yes,
no one told me of it. She sat down upon
the table, expecting some of the flowers to ask her
to dance with them, but as they did not, she
(05:47):
let herself fall upon the floor so as to make
a great noise. And then the flowers all came crowding
about to ask if she were hurt, and they were
very blind, especially those that had lain in her bed.
She was not at all hurt, and the flowers thanked
her for the use of her pretty bed and took
(06:09):
her into the middle of the room where the moon shone,
and danced with her, while the other flowers formed a
circle around them. So now Sophie was pleased, and said
they might keep her bed, for she did not mind
sleeping in the drawer, the least in the world. But
the flowers replied, we thank you most heartily for your kindness,
(06:35):
but we shall not be long enough to need it.
We shall be quite dead by to morrow. But tell
mottle Ida she is to plant us out in the
garden near the canary bird, and then we shall wake
again next summer and be even more beautiful than we
have this year. Oh no, you must not go, said Sophie,
(07:00):
kissing them as she spoke. And then a great company
of flowers came dancing in. I cannot imagine where they
could have come from, unless from the King's garden. Two
beautiful roses led the way wearing golden crowns. Then followed
(07:21):
the wall flowers and pinks, who bowed to all present.
They brought a band of music with them. Wild hyacinths
and little white snowdrops jingled merry bells. It was a
most remarkable orchestra. Following these were an immense number of flowers,
(07:43):
all dancing violets, daisies, lilies of the valley, and others
which it was a delight to see. At last, all
the happy flowers wished one another good night. Little Ida too,
crept back to her bed to dream of all that
she had seen. When she rose the next morning, she
(08:06):
went at once to her little table to see if
her flowers were there. She drew aside the curtains of
her little bed. Yes, there lay the flowers, but they
were much more faded to day than yesterday. Sophie too
was in the door, but she looked very sleepy. Do
(08:31):
you remember what you were to say to me? Asked
Ida of her. But Sophie looked quite dazed and had
not a word to say. You were not kind at all,
said Ida. And yet all the flowers let you dance
with them. Then she chose from her playthings a little
(08:56):
pasteboard box with birds painted on it, and in it
she laid the dead flowers. That shall be your pretty box,
said she. And when my cousins come to visit me,
by and by, they shall help me to plant you
(09:17):
in the garden, in order that next summer you may
grow again and be still more beautiful and that's the
end of today's story. I'll be back again soon with
a new story. You can subscribe and listen to the
