Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon."
But it was not dark. Everywhere there were lights-
lines of light--circles and blurs of light--ten thousand
torches would not have been the same. The sky itself
was alight-_you could barely see the stars for the
glow in the sky. I thought to myself "This is strong
magic" and trembled. There was a roaring in my ears
like the rushing of rivers. Then my eyes grew used to
the light and my ears to the sound. I knew that I was
seeing the city as it had been when the gods were
alive
That was a sight indeed--yes, that was a sight. I
could not have seen it in the body--my body would
have died. Everywhere went the gods, on foot and in
chariots- -there were gods beyond number and
counting and their chariots blocked the streets. They
had turned night to day for their pleasure--they did not sleep with the sun. The noise of their coming and
going was the noise of the many waters. It was magic
what they could do--it was magic what they did.
