"Tell me, where did you go in the ark?"
"To a place of many waters ... many waters, and we rested on them until
they went down." Now the voice was fading.
"Where was it? Tell me, where was it?"
The reply came in almost a whisper. "I don't know. It was another
earth ... another earth...."
The eyes closed again, the breathing became deeper, but the lips still
moved, and through them, barely heard in the tense silence, came again
the low, chanting sounds. Then they, too, died away to silence, the
lips ceased to move, and Richardson slept.
