SECTION 16 How the Stranger vainly endeavoured to reveal to me in words the mysteries of Spaceland
As soon as the sound of the Peace-cry of my departing Wife had died away, I began to approach the Stranger with the intention of taking a nearer view and of bidding him be seated: but his appearance struck me dumb and motionless with astonishment. Without the slightest symptoms of angularity he nevertheless varied every instant with graduations of size and brightness scarcely possible for any Figure within the scope of my experience. The thought flashed across me that I might have before me a burglar or…-

CHAPTER XVI – The Risen Christ
On Easter Sunday, April 4, 1920, as Earth celebrates the Resurrection with personal indulgence, the Martians observe no such event, for they never rejected Christ's teachings. Rather than commemorating a crucifixion, Mars has embraced the Truths Christ imparted, living in a continual belief that enables them, unlike Earth's inhabitants, to perform miracles akin to those of Christ and His disciples. Mars critiques Earth's shallow observance of religious occasions, emphasizing that their spiritual leaders…-

CHAPTER XV -Gulliver of Mars
The whole tale, briefly but with fervor, hiding nothing—how Heru and I met, how I had come from another world, the deadly feud against her, my pledge to help her, the ambush, the fight, and our flight to the forest. Her plain face softened as the story proceeded, touching me deeply by her ready sympathy. When I finished, she brushed a rough hand across her eyes, then gripped mine tightly, saying with conviction, "You shall have her, lad! Hearts like yours deserve to win. It's foolhardy, I know, but…-
