The promenaders under the lindens of Karlsruhe notice a very sick man and the little girl who tends him so carefully. Their story leads to the countryside, where the hedge between two gardens opens onto a lively household of children, including Wili and Lili, and a season of charades, a flood and long-wished-for happiness follows.
