Jack McDevitt THE ENGINES OF GOD In the streets of Hau-kai, we wait. Night comes, winter descends. The lights of the world grow cold. And, in this three-hundredth year From the ascendancy of Bilat, He will come who treads the dawn, Tramples the sun beneath his feet. And judges the souls of men. He will stride across the rooftops. And he will fire the engines of God. — Uranic Book of Prayer (Quraqua) (Translated by Margaret Tufu)
