The talisman may, will, save her, unless in the madness of joy she forget to ask its aid, or the Spark flashing upon its surface seems to create anew the fire within, and thus deceives her." So the Fairy put the ring upon Queen Lura's hand, and kissed Maya's fair brow, already shaded with sleep.
Then she beckoned to the ladies-in-waiting and bade them see to Maya's rest and comfort. Maya, stirred to the depths of her being, allowed herself to be led away. After this, life had nothing lovelier to offer.
And the angel came in unto her, and said, 'Hail, thou that art highly favoured.... Behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest." The Brahmins, or Indian priests, who know what the birth of a Buddha means, interpret Maya's dream.
"Petway, get us three glasses of wine," commanded Goat calmly. Petway vanished and Goat turned briskly back to his guests. "Now," he said, "I shall outline the progress of my experiments to you and answer any questions you may have." Maya's education was extensive, but it did not include the genetic sciences.
He asked the firefly to perch on his shoulder and with its wing to dim its lamp on the one side so as to keep the dazzle out of his eyes. "Come now," he said, taking Maya's hand.

Directly under Maya's blossom was a withered leaf. Here he stopped, shoved the leaf aside, and made a step backward. Maya saw a hole in the ground.
Words cannot tell Maya's awe and rapture. She sat rigid. The tiny being climbed to the edge of the blossom, lifted its arms up to the moonlight, and looked out into the bright shining night with a smile of bliss lighting up its face.

"The sun has risen!" The joyous call sounding in Maya's ears awoke her out of sleep the next morning.
