The blessing of God be on him who relieves my present sufferings from hunger ! " The Woodcutter and his wife agreed that it would be much better for them to go to heaven with half a bellyful, than leave one fellow-creature on earth famishing for a meal ; they, there- fore, determined on sharing their own portion with him who had none, and he went away from them rejoicing. " ...Now, " said the happy pair, " we shall eat our half- share with immixed delight, and with thankful hearts. By to-morrow eve we shall be transferred to paradise.
