stone blue-prints. You want to work in my
metal shop on a rocket you’re welcome. I
will sell you that metal for five hundred
dollars. You should be able to construct a
right pretty rocket, if you work again, in
about thirty years”.
2.They looked at Martians hills at that time
had worn with a crushing pressure of years.
They saw the old cities, lost in their
meadows, lying like children’s decline bones
among the blowing lakes of grass. “Chin up,
Harry”, said his wife, “it’s too late. We’ve
come over sixty million miles.” The children
with their yellow hair hollered at the deep
dome of Martian sky. There was no answer
but the racing hiss of wind through the stiff
grass.
3.For a long time there was only the sound of
wind in the late afternoon. Alone, thought
Bittering. Only a thousand of us here. No
way back. No way, no way. Sweat poured
from his face and his hands and his body; he
was drenched in the hotness of his fear. He
wanted to strike Laura cry, “No, you are
lying! The rockets will come back” ! instead,
he stroked Laura’s head against him and
said, “The rocket will get through someday”.
4.The rocket metal cooled in the meadow
winds. Its lid gave a bulging pop. From its
clock interior stepped a man, a woman and
three children. The other passengers
whirled away across the Martian meadow,
leaving the man alone among his family. The
man felt his hair flutter and the tissues of
his body draw tight as if he were standing at
the center of a vacuum. His wife, before
him, seemed almost to whirl away in smoke.
The children, small seeds, might at any
instant be sown to all the Martian Climes.
5.The wind blew as if to flake away their
identities. At any moment the Martian air
might draw his soul from him, as marrow
comes from a white bone. He felt submerged
in a chemical that could dissolve his
intellect and burn away his past. They
looked at the Martian hills that time had
worn with a crushing pressure of years.
They saw old cities, lost in their meadows,
lying like children’s delicate bones among
the blowing lakes of grass.
6.Summer burned the canals dry. Summer
moved like flames upon the meadows. In the
empty earth settlements, the painted
houses flaked and peeled. Rubber trees
upon which children had swung in backyard
hung suspended like stopped clocks
pendulums in the blazing air.

leisure. Men stood in the open door and
