Wisdom, the first-daughter of God whom some call Reason, works obediently alongside the Father to tend Creation. She protects and instructs his children and her joyful service-song gives them courage for the day. One of the Wanderers, slowly ascending the switch-backs that climb to the Pass, pauses on his trek – compelled to listen. Meanwhile a wild-child runs circles around her kind handmaid, throwing dust into the sky and breaking down the furrows. But when the time comes, calm Reason gently captures the little one, draws polished-ivory Order from her apron, and patiently combs the tangled locks of Chaos. She must prepare the girl for her new-name Christening for it is Cosmos that will be invited to the wedding.
