The child begged to be told the 'Easter story,' and Miss Sibyl tried to oblige her, saying as she did so, 'But you know it much better than I do.' When she had finished her rather halting narrative, Olive looked up and added,-- 'So everybody dried their tears and were very happy, because they knew Jesus would never die again.' Then after a pause she asked, 'Why didn't Jesus always stay down in the world, Aunt Sibyl? Why did He go back to heaven so soon?' 'I think He told us He had finished His work, my dear.' 'What work?' 'Well--dying on the cross for us. He came down from heaven to do that. When He had died for our sins, He went back to heaven.' 'But He came out of His grave first!' said the child triumphantly. Their conversation was interrupted by Roland, who came flying out of the house.
